Virginia Woolf’s “Orlando” is a whimsical journey through time and gender. This enchanting tale follows the titular character’s transformation from a young nobleman in Elizabethan England to a modern woman in the 1920s. Woolf’s prose dances with wit and insight, exploring identity, art, and love across centuries. I was captivated by Orlando’s adventures and Woolf’s clever commentary on societal norms. A truly unique reading experience that still feels fresh and relevant today.
No passion is stronger in the breast of man than the desire to make others believe as he believes.
