Orlando: A Graphic Novel Adaptation of Virginia Woolf’s Queer Classic

The graphic novel adaptation of Virginia Woolf's feminist classic, which tells the story of a passionate young nobleman traveling through time in the body of a woman.

Long considered Woolf's most accessible novel, Orlando lives through three extraordinary centuries as a woman, bounding from imperial Turkey to Tsarist Russia to Elizabethan England. It is an examination of gender, the passage of time and about love in an age of ambiguity and capriciousness.

Since its 1928 publication, Orlando has seen dozens of adaptation on the stage and screen. Susanne Kuhlendahl's graphic novel uses the original text as she tells Orlando's story in a fluid style as energetic and playful as the original.
