Over dit e-boek

Virginia Woolf's novel 'Orlando' is a groundbreaking work of literature that blurs the boundaries of time, gender, and identity. Written in Woolf's signature stream-of-consciousness style, the book follows the protagonist Orlando through centuries of British history as he mysteriously transitions from a man to a woman. This fantastical exploration of self-discovery and transformation challenges societal norms and constructs, making it both a playful and profound read. The book's innovative structure and lyrical prose place it within the context of modernist literature, highlighting Woolf's experimental and thought-provoking approach to storytelling. Throughout 'Orlando,' Woolf's keen observations and intimate portrayal of human experience shine through, creating a rich tapestry of themes and emotions. Virginia Woolf's own experiences with gender identity and her unique perspective on societal expectations undoubtedly influenced the creation of this literary masterpiece. By weaving together history, fantasy, and profound character development, Woolf invites readers to reflect on the fluidity of identity and the complexities of human existence. 'Orlando' is a must-read for those interested in innovative storytelling, feminist literature, and the exploration of personal identity.
