| |  | | | From The Publisher As his tale begins, Orlando is a passionate young nobleman whose days are spent in rowdy revelry, filled with the colorful delights of Queen Elizabeth's court. By the close, he will have transformed into a modern, thirty-six-year-old woman and three centuries will have passed. Orlando will witness the making of history from its edge, dressing in the flamboyant fashions of each day, following passing customs, and socializing with celebrated artists and writers. Orlando's journey will also be an internal one -- he is an impulsive poet who learns patience in matters of the heart, and a woman who knows what it is to be a man. Virginia Woolf's most unusual and fantastic creation, Orlando is a funny, exuberant romp through history that examines the true nature of sexuality.
| | | | Annotation A fictional biography--spanning three centuries in the life of an Elizabethan nobleman who becomes a woman.

"I read the book of Job last night - I don't think God comes out well in it."
"Each has his past shut in him like the leaves of a book known to him by heart and his friends can only read the title."
"Literature is strewn with the wreckage of those who have minded beyond reason the opinion of others."
