Fun little peak into Anne Lister’s life. Doesn’t add much beyond the narrative of the show. It was nice to see quotes from the diaries to appreciate Lister’s voice and eccentricities. Also complicates her narrative with politics, which I think is something good to know rather than to gloss over,
Moderate: Emotional abuse, Mental illness, Panic attacks/disorders, Racial slurs, Racism, Toxic relationship, Vomit, and Medical content
Minor: Death and Religious bigotry
There are sections that discuss political/scientific views of the time that are inherently racist. Also some level of non-consent/questionable consent/mental ability to consent that occur between Lister and Walker.emmaward55's review against another edition

A beautiful blend of original diary entries and the factual account of Anne Lister's life, this is a perfect introduction to the lesbian icon of early 1800's Britain.
