Virginia Woolf's pioneering novel about a time-traveling sixteenth-century nobleman who wakes up in the body of a woman, with a new foreword by Andrea Lawlor, author of Paul Takes the Form of a Mortal Girl "A brilliant book that teaches you so much about identity and love--all these fundamental questions that we ask ourselves." --Emma Corrin "I read this book and believed it was a hallucinogenic, interactive biography of my own life and future." --Tilda Swinton A Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition, with flaps and deckle-edged paper First masculine, then feminine, Orlando is a young sixteenth-century nobleman who gallops through the centuries, from Elizabethan England and imperial Turkey to Virginia Woolf's own time. Will he find happiness with the exotic Russian Princess Sasha? Or is the dashing explorer Shelmerdine the ideal man? And what form will Orlando take on the journey--a nobleman, traveler, writer? Man or . . . woman? Written for the charismatic, bisexual writer Vita Sackville-West, Orlando is one of Woolf's most popular and accessible novels, a playful mock biography of a chameleon-like historical figure that is both a wry commentary on gender and, in Woolf's own words, a "writer's holiday" that delights in its ambiguity and capriciousness. This edition is collated from all known proofs, manuscripts, and impressions to reflect the author's intentions, and includes an introduction and notes by the distinguished scholar and coauthor of The Madwoman in the Attic Sandra M. Gibert. For more than seventy-five years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world.

Sobre o autor(a)

Woolf, Virginia

Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) é uma das escritoras mais importantes do século XX e um dos nomes mais relevantes do Modernismo. Para além de Mrs. Dalloway (1925), seu romance mais popular, a autora britânica também escreveu contos, textos autobiográficos, ensaios e histórias infantis. Conhecida por um estilo ímpar, Woolf encontrou uma linguagem para representar a consciência de suas personagens, perscrutando sua interioridade. A escritora participou ativamente dos debates de seu tempo, tanto literários como sociais, realizando palestras, escrevendo artigos e fazendo parte do famoso grupo de Bloomsbury. Ao lado de seu marido, Leonard Woolf também fundou a editora Hogarth Press.
