3.5

A navel-gazy jaunt through time periods and genders. Reads like a dream (both positive and negative), rapidly runs away for paragraphs at a time as Orlando ponders and takes on different roles and genders. 

Definitely difficult to read, though it is fun how Orlando's unexplained gender changes are of no real interest to any of the characters unless convenient (i.e. keepin those liasons censor-friendly). It might be a while before I read another Woolf but I respect it greatly
