«Virginia Woolf es dios, nadie ha escrito mejor.» - Milena Busquets
80 ANIVERSARIO DE VIRGINIA WOOLF
Desde que se publicó en 1928, Orlando ha sido una de las novelas más populares de Virginia Woolf por su originalidad y espíritu transgresor. Cuenta las peripecias de un joven aristócrata inglés, apuesto, rico, seductor y amante de la literatura -figura inspirada en la vida y la personalidad de la escritora Vita Sackville-West, gran amiga de la autora- que cabalga la Historia con mayúsculas desde el siglo XVI hasta el siglo XX y que, durante el reinado de Carlos II, se convierte en mujer. Esta peculiar mudanza de épocas y sexo supone un viaje por el tiempo, los espacios y las emociones, además de una meditación estimulante sobre la creación artística.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Virginia Woolf's most unusual and fantastic creation, a funny, exuberant tale that examines the very nature of sexuality.
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 not only witness the making of history from its edge but will find that his unique position as a woman who knows what it is to be a man will give him insight into matters of the heart.
