Sinopse

One soul. Two genders. Four centuries.

Orlando by Virginia Woolf is a dazzling, genre-defying novel that explores gender, identity, and time through the eyes of a charismatic protagonist who begins life as a nobleman in Elizabethan England and awakens one day as a woman—continuing to live and write into the 20th century.

Inspired by Woolf's relationship with Vita Sackville-West, this novel blends biography, fantasy, and social critique with modernist wit and poetic insight. It remains a groundbreaking work in feminist, queer, and experimental literature.

💬 "Woolf's most playful and profound creation—an ode to transformation and literary freedom."

🌀 Why This Classic Still Breaks Boundaries:
A foundational text for LGBTQ+ studies, gender theory, and postmodern literature

Recommended for fans of Jeanette Winterson, Ali Smith, Angela Carter, and Tilda Swinton's film adaptation

An ideal pick for book clubs, classrooms, and collectors of feminist classics

    A foundling of mysterious parentage brought up by Mr. Allworthy on his country estate, Tom Jones is deeply in love with the seemingly unattainable Sophia Western, the beautiful daughter of the neighboring squire though he sometimes succumbs to the charms of the local girls. When Tom is banished to make his own fortune and Sophia follows him to London to escape an arranged marriage, the adventure begins. A vivid Hogarthian panorama of eighteenth-century life, spiced with danger and intrigue, bawdy exuberance and good-natured authorial interjections, Tom Jones is one of the greatest and most ambitious comic novels in English literature.
    BOOK 8: As we are now entering upon a book in which the course of our history will oblige us to relate some matters of a more strange and surprizing kind than any which have hitherto occurred, it may not be amiss, in the prolegomenous or introductory chapter, to say something of that species of writing which is called the marvellous.

    Herbert George Wells (21 September 1866 - 13 August 1946) was an English writer. Prolific in many genres, he wrote dozens of novels, short stories, and works of social commentary, history, satire, biography and autobiography. His work also included two books on recreational war games. Wells is now best remembered for his science fiction novels and is often called the "father of science fiction", along with Jules Verne and the publisher Hugo Gernsback.
    DOCTORS: In that extravagant world of which I dream, in which people will live in delightful cottages and ground rents will serve instead of rates, and everyone will have a chance of being happy-in that impossible world all doctors will be members of one great organisation for the public health, with all or most of their income guaranteed to them: I doubt if there will be any private doctors at all.
