Fanny and Stella: The Young Men Who Shocked Victorian England by Neil McKenna

5.0

Possibly the best history book I've read so far this year. Fanny and Stella is a fascinating story, brilliantly and engagingly told.

I had never heard of this case before, but was sucked in by the blurb on the back which promised the really interesting tale that the book delivered. I haven't read a lot of gay/queer history - but this is a fascinating and accessible introduction to what I'm sure are a wealth of stories waiting to be told and read.
