N2  - Orlando, a young nobleman and one of Queen Elizabeth I's  court favourites, is the object of many ladies'  attentions but, after suffering heartbreak, he prefers  literary pursuits to entertaining any thoughts of  marriage. Having obtained a ambassadorial post in  Constantinople, Orlando falls into a long sleep and wakes  up suddenly transformed into a woman. Also blessed with  the gift of never ageing, she embarks on adventurous  travels throughout Europe and the following centuries,  observing what it is like to be female.
