such a fascinating read. an exploration into gender fluidity and sexuality with an air of wittiness that is way ahead of it’s time. feels like a fever dream where orlando’s identity outlives time and space. this did make the story difficult to follow at times but the writing is so beautifully poetic that it made it all so worth it.
