Forbidden passion in letters: Virginia Woolf and Vita Sackville-West's 20-year correspondence inspired "Orlando" - what Alison Bechdel calls "the longest love letter in literature." Their defiant romance, spanning 1922-1941, reveals how love persisted when same-sex relationships were criminalized in Britain.

What happens when two brilliant minds meet and discover they complete each other in ways neither expected? In December 1922, Virginia Woolf encountered Vita Sackville-West at a London dinner party and described her as "florid, moustached, parakeet coloured"-hardly a romantic first impression. Yet within days, Vita confessed to her husband Harold that she had "quite lost my heart" to Virginia. This unlikely beginning sparked one of the most extraordinary love affairs in literary history, a relationship that would inspire Virginia's revolutionary novel "Orlando" and leave behind nearly two decades of intimate correspondence. Their letters reveal something profound: that love can flourish outside traditional boundaries, that passion and intellect need not be separate, and that the most transformative relationships often arrive in unexpected packages.
