Orlando

Virginia Woolf

Sinossi

✨ What if a single life could stretch across centuries—and shift from one gender to another?

Virginia Woolf's Orlando: A Biography is one of the most daring and imaginative works of modernist literature. First published in 1928, it tells the story of Orlando, a young nobleman in Elizabethan England who inexplicably lives for centuries and awakens one day as a woman.

Part love letter, part satire, and part philosophical meditation, Woolf's masterpiece explores themes of gender, identity, art, and the fluidity of time. With her wit and lyrical brilliance, she defies conventional boundaries, blurring the line between biography and fiction.

🌟 Why readers love Orlando:

One of the earliest explorations of gender fluidity and identity in literature.

A witty, playful critique of English history and society.

Inspired by Woolf's intimate relationship with the poet Vita Sackville-West.

Celebrated as a visionary feminist classic, Orlando continues to inspire readers with its boldness and timeless exploration of what it means to be human.

In His Steps

Charles M. Sheldon

What would Jesus do? When several members of an ordinary American church are challenged to not take a single action without fist asking that crucial question, they discover the power of God to transform their own lives—and their world. Charles M. Sheldon’s provocative novel, originally published in 1896 and enthusiastically rediscovered by today’s believers, testifies dramatically to the value of Christian witness in all of life.

Charles M. Sheldon (1857–1946) is best remembered for his 1896 masterwork In His Steps, the multi-million copy best-selling Christian novel that continues to challenge readers today. But he was more than a best-selling author. At the turn of the twentieth century, Sheldon was perhaps the best-known clergyman in America, a preacher whose avid support of social reforms grew out of his understanding of the Christian’s responsibility to his fellowman.
