Spanning three centuries, the novel opens as Orlando, a young nobleman in Elizabeths Engl&, awaits a visit from the Queen & traces his experience with first love as England under James I lies locked in the embrace of the Great Frost.

At the midpoint of the novel, Orlando, now an ambassador in Costantinople, awakes to find that he is a woman, & the novel indulges in farce & irony to consider the roles of women in the 18th & 19th centuries.

As the novel ends in 1928, a year consonant with full suffrage for women. Orlando, now a wife & mother, stands poised at the brink of a future that holds new hope & promise for women.
