Description: | Select Guide Rating Women in Victorian England wore jewelry made from each other's hair and wrote poems celebrating decades of friendship. They pored over magazines that described the dangerous pleasures of corporal punishment. This book offers a paradigm for theorizing gender and sexuality - not just in the Victorian period, but in our own. |
