These people are clowns. I’ve just re-read Orlando for the umpteenth time and, as I read it in every new stage of my life, I find something new and immensely profound in its pages. Orlando is about (in no particular order) gender roles, growing up, biography, sex, love, death, memory, fame, literature, the monarchy, feminism, marriage, English property laws, what it means to be an ‘outsider,’ nature, great old English houses, and the meaning of life itself. So there!
