Woolfs innovative narrative style blends biography and fiction, employing a rich tapestry of prose characterized by its lyrical quality, humor, and keen observational insight. Set against the backdrop of English literary history, the novel deftly critiques societal norms related to gender and sexuality, redefining traditional notions of biography by intertwining the fantastic with the factual. Virginia Woolf, a key figure in the modernist literary movement, was influenced by her own and her contemporaries struggles with gender and identity. The son of renowned Victorian writers, Woolfs literary upbringing and her intimate understanding of the dynamics of gender led her to create a character that defies rigid classifications, speaking to both personal and broader societal themes. Her own life experiences, including her relationships and her battles with mental health, inform the deeply personal yet universal narrative of Orlando. Orlando: A Biography is essential reading for those interested in the intersections of gender, history, and literature. Woolfs audacious defiance of traditional narrative forms invites readers to engage with complex ideas about the self and society. This novel not only enriches ones understanding of early 20th-century literature but also resonates firmly in contemporary discussions surrounding identity and expression.</p>...4625848Orlando: A Biography4343https://www.gandhi.com.mx/orlando--a-biography-9788028360269/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/4435793/image.jpg?v=638702760049900000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20249788028360269_W3siaWQiOiJiN2MwNTFkZS0zYzBiLTQ1YjktOWU5Yy04NDhmNDM2Y2M0MzUiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjQzLCJkaXNjb3VudCI6MCwic2VsbGluZ1ByaWNlIjo0MywiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjQtMTItMDFUMDA6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d9788028360269_<p>Virginia Woolfs Orlando: A Biography is a groundbreaking novel that defies traditional gender boundaries and explores the fluidity of identity across time. The book follows the protagonist Orlando, who lives for centuries and changes gender from man to woman. Woolfs writing style is lyrical and poetic, with rich descriptions of settings and introspective character development. The narrative seamlessly weaves historical events with personal experiences, offering a unique perspective on the passage of time and the complexities of human existence in a rapidly changing world. Orlando challenges societal norms and questions the construct of gender, making it a significant work of feminist literature in the early 20th century. Virginia Woolf, a prominent figure in the Bloomsbury Group, was known for her innovative writing style and exploration of modernist themes. Woolfs own struggles with mental health and personal identity likely influenced her creation of Orlando and the themes of transformation and self-discovery present in the novel. Through her daring narrative choices and profound insights, Woolf solidified her reputation as a literary trailblazer and a champion of avant-garde literature. I highly recommend Orlando: A Biography to readers interested in gender studies, modernist literature, and experimental fiction. Woolfs masterful storytelling and thought-provoking exploration of identity make this novel a timeless classic that continues to challenge and inspire readers today.</p>...9788028360269_Sharp Inklibro_electonico_9788028360269_9788028360269Virginia WoolfInglésMéxico2024-04-07T00:00:00+00:00https://getbook.kobo.com/koboid-prod-public/ciando-epub-29cf7b45-fa48-42a8-8a7f-78191064c332.epub2024-04-07T00:00:00+00:00Sharp Ink
