The title of the work is Orlando: A Biography. In fact, the work follows the events of Orlando focusing on the most significant events of his life. The style and structure underline the quality of the work. In the intentions of Virginia Woolf there was to demonstrate how the Victorian conviction of being able to produce objective biographies and which did not consider the interiority of the subject was unfounded.The novel, is the first work after war and can capture the complexity of life. A biography that does not take into account the psychology of its protagonist for Woolf cannot exist.
