Orlando: A Biography

First edition, preceding the English trade edition. Fine with none of the usual spine fading, and the only example we have seen in the original unprinted deep purple glassine dustwrapper (not shown in the rotating image), that has some minor chipping, mostly on the rear panel. One of 861 numbered copies Signed by the author. A fantasy biography of transgendered Orlando, living alternately as male and female through four centuries. Made into a Sally Potter film in 1992 with Tilda Swinton in the title role and Quentin Crisp as Queen Elizabeth I. A rarity in jacket.
