Orlando is a young English aristocrat who traverses centuries of history and, midway through his life, wakes up transformed into a woman. Presented as an imaginary biography, Woolf's novel plays with gender, desire and social class while satirizing biographical conventions and celebrating individual freedom.
The novel was originally published in 1928 and is subtitled «A Biography»; this English edition appeared in 1991 within the Flamingo Modern Classics collection.
A work of interest for readers of modern classics and fiction that approaches gender identity and history from a playful perspective.
