Orlanda

By Jacqueline Harpman

“Luckily for us, Seven Stories Press has just republished Orlanda, a gender-bending romp by the Belgian novelist Jacqueline Harpman that was originally published in 1996 in Belgium (and three years later in the United States, translated by Ros Schwartz). The reissue arrives like a bucket of ice water to the face—it’s a clarifying shock to the system. The more dogmatic we become about gender, the novel reminds us, the more dangerous it becomes for everyone… The triumph of Orlanda, though, is that Harpman makes the lesson tremendously fun. That’s because of her bright and jocular storytelling.” —MJ Franklin, New York Times
