Description
Singular biografía, la de Orlando se desarrolla entre la época isabelina y el siglo XX y además, a mitad de camino, cambia el sexo de su protagonista. Sólo una agilidad narrativa como la de Woolf podía trenzar un juego literario semejante, y sólo Borges podía traducirlo con fidelidad al espíritu que lo anima.

This was quite possibly one of the most thought-provoking and interesting books I've ever read. I will admit it took me a little while to get into it. I initially struggled with the biographical style Woolf employed and had to put the book down fir a good while, hence the docked star. However once i was back into it, i finished it in a day. I do have to celebrate this book mostly due to how happy this book made me whilst reading it. Its joyful and romantic description of Orlando's world in turn gave me a far greater appreciation of my own surroundings and experiences, which i shall be forever grateful for. Overall a very good book, just a bit challenging to jump straight into.
