bookish_5280 's review for:
Orlando
by Virginia Woolf
WOW WOW WOW I need all of my friends to read thissssssss
God I just adore how Woolf writes! Next read: Love Letters -- Virginia Woolf and Vita Sackville-West :)
On a more serious note, I think the fact that this book was published and became popular in Virginia Woolf's lifetime is incredible. There's so much experimentation with the fluidity of gender and sexuality, and the fact that it is written to naturally lends its progressive aspects even more strength. As a queer person, I found this narrative to be unequivocally freeing. Of course, Virginia Woolf's style is unique and experimental and thoughful as always :).
