SYNOPSIS
Once described as the longest and most charming love-letter in literature, the Virginia Woolf's Orlando is edited by Brenda Lyons with an introduction and notes by Sandra M. Gilbert in Penguin Classics.
Written for Virginia Woolf's intimate friend, the charismatic writer Vita Sackville-West, Orlando is a playful mock biography of a chameleonic historical figure, immortal and ageless, who changes sex and identity on a whim.
First masculine, then feminine, Orlando begins life as a young sixteenth-century nobleman, then gallops through three centuries to end up as a woman writer in Virginia Woolf's own time.
A wry commentary on gender roles and modes of history, Orlando is also, in Woolf's own words, a light-hearted writer's holiday which delights in ambiguity and capriciousness.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Virginia Woolf
Virginia Woolf was born in London on January 25, 1882, the daughter of Sir Leslie Stephen, a distinguished writer and historian of Victorian England. From an early age linked to groups of intellectuals, she married Leonard Woolf in 1912 and with him founded the publishing house Hogarth Press, responsible for the revelation of authors such as Katherine Mansfield and T. S. Eliot and for the publication of her own works. Recognized as one of the most prominent figures of British modernism, her works include the novels Mrs Dalloway (1925), Orlando (1928) and The Waves (1931), as well as the essay A Room That Is Yours (1929). After successive depressive crises and unable to bear the isolation caused by the worsening of the Second World War, he committed suicide on March 28, 1941, in Lewes.
