Synopsis

“This transporting adaptation and homage is sure to impress those who know the novel deeply and kindle the interest of those who do not” — Publisher's Weekly

Virginia Woolf’s classic novel Orlando tells the story of a poet adrift in time; he starts out his life as a nobleman in Queen Elizabeth I’s court, and her story concludes as a thirty-six year old woman in the present.

Jules Scheele’s graphic novel adaptation of this important queer work tells the complete story of Orlando’s journey through history that examines the shifting and changing ideas of gender and sexuality, and plumbs the depths of the human heart. Taking us through love affairs, betrayals and exiles, struggles against conformity and poetry through the ages, Orlando is a fantastical adventure filled with satirical wit.

A powerful and essential graphic novel adaptation of a vital British classic.
