About This Novel
Sarah Waters, the original author of the British drama "Fingersmith" and a master storyteller among the living English writers today, has made a stunning debut in the literary world. The New York Times Noteworthy Work of the Year; won the Betty Trask Literary Award. From the theater to the street corner, from a seaside girl to a beauty in men's clothing; she experienced betrayal, transcended despair, and finally reached the bloom and awakening of a woman. Because of a thrown rose, the seaside girl left her hometown and followed her beloved beauty in men's clothing; because of an unexpected betrayal, the actor Nancy fell into depravity and exiled herself to the dark street corners of London. In this novel about lust and freedom, about growth and transformation, Sarah Waters examines the theater culture of the Victorian era, the men's beauties trend, the embryonic form of the feminist movement, and the aristocratic underground erotic clubs, recreating the various aspects of London at that time.

After Liluo 6 sets of Carver
have a look
Look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look, look
There was another moment of silence, only the laughter and the sound of chairs being pulled downstairs were heard.
Support it.
The ending is good, but the reading process is very painful. I can fully understand the emotion of being angry and sad for the misfortune.
Parents always liked to lie to their children when they were young. Waters' mother once said that he was picked up and if he didn't obey, he would be eaten. This was also a common tactic used by parents.
Awesome book! ! ! ! ! The writing is smooth and beautiful, and the psychological description of the characters is delicate. I will be crazy about this book!
