First masculine, then feminine, Orlando begins life as a young sixteenth-century nobleman, then gallops through three centuries to end up as a woman writer in Virginia Woolf's own time.   A wry commentary on gender roles and modes of history, Orlando is also, in Woolf's own words, a light-hearted 'writer's holiday' which delights in its ambiguity and capriciousness.","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46027184242907,"sku":"9780141184272-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/9780141184272-us-300.jpg?v=1725876954","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9780141184272-secondhand-orlando","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
