Virginia Woolf's Orlando is a groundbreaking novel that transcends the boundaries of time, gender, and identity.

Through a rich tapestry of historical and literary references, Orlando invites readers to reflect on the complexities of identity and the passage of time, all while maintaining a playful and innovative narrative style. This novel not only serves as a profound commentary on the roles of gender and sexuality but also celebrates the liberating power of creativity and self-expression.
