Orlanda

THE ’90S GENDER SWAP NOVEL YOU NEED TO READ NOW' (NEW YORK TIMES), FROM THE AUTHOR OF I WHO HAVE NEVER KNOWN MEN There’s a voice in Aline’s head: a voice that wants out. Brash, boisterous and sexually adventurous, this voice seems to be the antithesis of Aline, a prim literature professor for whom each day promises to be as quiet and conventional as the last. That is until, after thirty-five years of imprisonment, her alter ego breaks free. Taking on a life of his own, Orlanda – Aline’s second self – slips into the taut, rugged body of a young man. As Aline continues unaware, Orlanda follows, dragging gleeful chaos in his wake, vowing to leave both their existences forever altered. A bewitching fable, an androgynous dream, Orlanda is one woman’s reckoning with all the hidden sides of her soul. --- READER REVIEWS - JOIN THE ORLANDA OBSESSION: 'Hilarious, life affirming, haunting…truly perfect in prose, plot, and concept. Just wow' 'A powerful novel, witty, wicked and teasing' 'It’s the perfect book' 'This is the second book I've read by her and it's another masterpiece' 'Reading this has confirmed Jacqueline Harpman as one of my favourite writers I’ve ever encountered'
