Orlando

＂[Orlando is] a brilliant book that teaches you so much about identity and love--all these fundamental questions that we ask ourselves.＂ - Emma Corrin

＂I read Orlando and believed it was a hallucinogenic, interactive biography of my own life and future.＂ - Tilda Swinton

The graphic novel adaptation of Virginia Woolf’s feminist classic, which tells the story of a passionate young nobleman traveling through time in the body of a woman.

Virginia Woolf’s Orlando has long stood as a dazzling landmark in feminist and queer literature. In this vivid adaptation by Susanne Kuhlendahl, Woolf’s fantastical biography comes to life anew: the tale of a passionate young nobleman who defies time and convention. Orlando begins his journey in the Elizabethan court and lives for over three centuries--transitioning along the way from a man into a woman, and from a restless youth into a self-assured figure of modernity. As eras shift and empires rise and fall, Orlando remains, navigating identity, desire, and the elusive nature of love.
