Summary

The Orlando Trilogy is set in the Thirties and Forties, during a time where England is desperately trying to recover from the Depression. These three novellas follow the story of Orlando King's unusual upbringing and his rise to power in the 1930s, where ideals were becoming fractured and morals frayed. What follows is a most spectacular fall from grace, a family in turmoil, and finally a painful and challenging resolution.

The Orlando Trilogy Summary

The Orlando Trilogy: "Orlando King", "Orlando at the Brazen Threshold" and "Agatha" by Isabel Colegate

The three stories were originally published in 1968, 1971, and 1973, with The Shooting Party being adapted for the screen. The books are carefully considered and elegantly written with a focus on how human nature can be distorted through politics and life in the public eye.
