Orlando (Aziloth Books)

Meer over het boek

The protagonist experiences life over three centuries while only aging 36 years, undergoing a remarkable transformation from man to woman. This unique premise allows for an exploration of various themes, including the distinction between fact and imagination, the value of art and poetry, and societal conformity. Central to the narrative is a critique of gender roles, illustrating how both men and women share similar dreams and aspirations despite societal impositions. Woolf's work invites readers to reflect on the fluidity of identity and the nature of human experience.
