HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved,
essential classics. 'The flower bloomed and faded. The sun rose and
sank. The lover loved and went. And what the poets said in rhyme,
the young translated into practice.' Written for her lover Vita
Sackville-West, 'Orlando' is Woolf's playfully subversive take on a
biography, here tracing the fantastical life of Orlando. As the
novel spans centuries and continents, gender and identity, we
follow Orlando's adventures in love - from being a lord in the
Elizabethan court to a lady in 1920s London. First published in
1928, this tale of unrivalled imagination and wit quickly became
the most famous work of women's fiction. Sexuality, destiny,
independence and desire - all come to the fore in this highly
influential novel that heralded a new era in women's writing.
