Orlando
First masculine, then feminine, Orlando begins life as a young sixteenthcentury nobleman, then gallops through the centuries to end up as a woman writer in Virginia Woolfs own time. Written for the charismatic, bisexual writer Vita SackvilleWest, this playful mock biography of a chameleonlike historical figure is both a wry commentary on gender and, in Woolfs own words, a writers holiday which delights in its ambiguity and capriciousness.
