New book on "Victorian Sex Rebels and Atheists"

Post by drl2 » Thu Feb 17, 2011 12:51 am

Came across this, thought it might be of interest:

Victorian Sex Rebels and Atheists: How Brave Artists Shook Up Prudish Mores
In a quest to pull the covers off prim Victorian society, Deborah Lutz, a renowned New York scholar and Professor of Victorian literature and culture at Long Island University, researched the work and lives of a group of Victorian freethinkers who blazed a trail for many current trends in modern art and literature.

Her new book, Pleasure Bound: Victorian Sex Rebels And The New Eroticism (W.W. Norton & Company), will raise eyebrows with its frank approach of cultural and sexual expression.

Upon the hours and times of your desire?

Nor services to do, till you require.

Well, there weren't any pictures, so I had to use my imagination.
