Beskrivning
Inspired by the life of Woolf's lover, Vita Sackville-West, Orlando is the stunning tale of a 300-year-old poet and nobleman who never ages. Against the backdrop of some of the most important moments of history, the titular character begins his life as a rowdy nobleman who delights in enjoying the privileges his status affords him. When he wakes one morning to discover that he is now a woman, he retains his joie de vivre. A wildly entertaining commentary on gender and history, this book acts as a magic mirror revealing how life and art constantly change but forever remain the same. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Arcturus Classics series brings together high-quality paperback editions of classics works, presented with contemporary graphic cover designs. Together they make a wonderful collection which is perfect for any home library.

Mer om författaren
Virginia Woolf, who was to become a major figure in the Bloomsbury Group of intellectuals, was born into an intellectual family in 1882. Her mother died when she was 13 and the death of her half-sister Stella two years later led to her first nervous breakdown. Woolf suffered from fragile mental health all her life and on 28 March 1941, after filling the pockets of her overcoat with stones, she walked into the River Ouse near her home and drowned herself.
