We can't wait for this adaption of a timeless classis, Orlando, from one of our favourite artists Jules Scheele! We'll be celebrating its release when Jules visits us for a signing on Friday 10th July 2026, from 5-6pm. You may recognise Jule's fantastic artwork from the series of Graphic Guides including Gender: A Graphic History, Queer: A Graphic Guide and Sexuality: A Graphic Guide. We're big fans of Jules and can't wait to read his adaption of Orlando! Here's what publisher, Avery Hill, say about the comic:
"Virginia Woolf’s classic novel Orlando tells the story of a poet adrift in time; he starts out his life as a nobleman in Queen Elizabeth I’s court, and her story concludes as a thirty-six year old woman in the present.
Jules Scheele’s graphic novel adaptation of this important queer work tells the complete story of Orlando’s journey through history that examines the shifting and changing ideas of gender and sexuality, and plumbs the depths of the human heart. Taking us through love affairs, betrayals and exiles, struggles against conformity and poetry through the ages, Orlando is a fantastical adventure filled with satirical wit.
A powerful and essential graphic novel adaptation of a vital British classic."
You can meet Jules and grab a copy of Orlando on Friday 10th July, from 5pm. Jules has even drawn us some stunning bookplates to accompany it! You can pre-order a signed bookplate edition of Orlando from our website.
