ORLANDO. Virginia Woolf

"No human being, since the world began, has ever looked more ravishing. His from combined in one the strength of a man and woman's grace".
Orlando lives through four centuries and many disguises. He is page to Queen Elizabeth I, beau at the Court of King James, Ambassador to the pompous palaces of Constantinople. There, he undergoes a miraculous transformation. While revolution explodes around him he sleeps -for days- and finds on waking that he has become a woman. Orlando as a woman is as beatiful, sensuous and unfashionably irrepressible as when she was a man. Times change, but Orlando's youth is unceasing. Though the Wits of the eighteenth century bore her to tears and the crinolines of the nineteenth threaten to engulf her, Orlando bursts into the twentieth century still full of energy and irreverence.
