Beautifully innovative

Claudia

It’s not often that we see a proper lesbian romance portrayed in literature, let alone good literature. That might have changed with this book right here. The characters, the plot, the beautiful and enticing writing were just incredible for a debut novel. Sarah Waters manages to tell a story that is often overlooked, never once betraying the condition of the time period it is set in. Highly recommend
