I only found Woolf and Orlando recently. It was the book I requested as a gift from my cousin, as I was and am very much in those other and in between spaces of existing. It also shook me. I have read twice and have read 3 others by Virginia now, and have to say she speaks to me in a very special way. This is not just a book for people in those lonely questioning spaces, it can be enlightening in many ways 90 years later for so many, and yes Virginia Woolf and Orlando live on, Thank you for this post! ✌️🌈!

beautiful and poetic analysis, thank you very much

I love the way Woolf put Vita Sackville-West (Orlando) and her lover Violet Trefusis (Princess Sasha) as characters in this; in reality a tragic story of two people who were really born a hundred years to early. The references to Princess Sasha's parentage are the same as the real-life conjecture about Violet's father; possibly Edward the 7th, as Violet's mother was the royal mistress. The book, Portrait of a Marriage, based on Vita's own writing of their affair gives a good background to their love.

Filmde Tilda Swinton'un performansı inanılmaz, muhteşem, sarsıcı. Virginia Woolf'un bize böyle bir hikaye bırakmış olması ne şahane bir şey. Tilda Swinton's performance in the movie is incredible, magnificent, shocking. What a wonderful thing that Virginia Woolf has left us such a story. #virginawoolf #tildaswinton #orlando

Elif Hanim, Bu videoyu izleyip sizin ile ortak bir nokta bulmak beni kendi dünyamda mutlu etti. Orlando benim de hayatimi çok etkiledi ve değiştirdi. Fakat ben karakterle ilk filmini izledigimde tanistim. Sonrasında Orlando referansları çok farklı turlu sekillerde hayatıma geldi. Ben de Orlando gibi Istanbul'da ilk defa non-binary birey olarak come out ettim (genelde Londra'da yaşıyorum) Sizin deyiminiz ile metamorfoza uğradım. O gunden beri günümüzde 'Feminen' bir insan olmanın getirileriyle ve çürümüş kurallariyla yeni tanisiyorum. Tam da 'threshold' da oldugum bir zamanda bugun charity shop gezerken sonunda Orlando kitabi bana geldi ve okumaya başladım. Kitap bambaşka bir dünya. Daha ilk basından çok etkilendim. Biraz once kitapla ilgili fikirleri merak edip KZbin'a geldim ve sizin videonuzla da boyle karsilastim. Sizi belki 15 yıl once Londra'da Lambeth Bridge'in kosesindeki Starbucks'da laptopunuz ile calisirken görüp starstruck olmustum. O zaman 18 yasindaydim ve sizin 'Ask' romanınızi daha yeni okumuştum. 'Ask' hayatımı değiştiren benim icin onemli 10 kitaptan biridir.Ve kitabi bitirince inanıyorum ki Orlando'da bu listeye katilicak. Ilhaminiz bol olsun. Sevgiler.

Dear Elif, what does the word "freedom" mean to you?

[@AliAli-gw6fq]

You are very beautiful from inside as well as outside

[@joyosumah6785]

U said it is a feminist classic I don't see anything feminist about it Can you expansiate I have a review on this novel and it's too complex for my own understanding

[@joyosumah6785]

I've heard what u have to say.... But I question your claim of "feminist essay/literature". How? For me... From what I've heard I think and I feel this book is actually the transit of time, era, class and gender The book yeah has this hint of broken conventionality like you've claim yeah...and we could see how the world and categorization of a man influence Orlando's style of writing and conformity to society standard as to when he was a woman. From a woman point we could see the existence of those women in the court I think the dark constaiene who could do and undo... That's game shakers of society in the world. So I think it's move like a transit for me

Lets not ignore all of the racial slurs though
