Chains of Love and Beauty

Více o knize

The monumental diary of Katharine Bradley and her niece Edith Cooper, known collectively as Michael Field, offers a unique glimpse into their romantic partnership and creative collaboration over three decades. Carolyn Dever's exploration positions this extensive work, titled Works and Days, as a significant yet overlooked narrative of the late-Victorian and early modernist eras. It reveals their unfulfilled literary ambitions and intimate reflections on gender, sexuality, and artistry while connecting their experiences to notable literary figures of their time.
