Genres

Orlando

The "Orlando" category in literature encapsulates a unique blend of historical fiction, gender exploration, and magical realism, inspired by Virginia Woolf's groundbreaking novel "Orlando: A Biography." Books within this genre often feature protagonists who, like Woolf's Orlando, transcend time, gender norms, and societal expectations, embarking on journeys that span centuries and cultures. These narratives challenge traditional storytelling by intertwining elements of fantasy with historical events and figures, encouraging readers to question the fluidity of identity, the constructs of gender, and the nature of time itself. The "Orlando" category invites readers into a realm where the boundaries of reality are blurred, offering a space for exploration of self, history, and the interconnectedness of human experiences across different eras.
