Boekenclub Orlando filmeditie
Omschrijving:
We are very excited to announce CLUB ORLANDO! Our literary collaboration with queer café De Kurk. In four events during pride month, we will go on an exploration of the themes in the classic novel Orlando by Virginia Woolf. To start off we will dive into the original work with a book club.
A staple in feminist and queer studies, Orlando breaks up the conventions of gender, time and society. The tale of the main character is one that is still relevant today, almost 100 years after its publication. As his tale begins, Orlando is a passionate sixteen-year-old nobleman whose days are spent in rowdy revelry, filled with the colorful delights of Queen Elizabeth I's court. By the end, three centuries have passed, and Orlando will have transformed into a thirty-six-year-old woman in the year 1928. It’s a charmingly funny text - a brave and free writing experiment.
Now is the time to finally read this classic if you haven’t! Or maybe you’re due for a reread with a fresh pair of eyes. Everyone’s welcome to share their reading experience in this book club.
