About this product

Product Information

The nineteenth century was a golden age for those people known variously as sodomites, Uranians, monosexuals, and homosexuals. Long before Stonewall and Gay Pride, there was such a thing as gay culture, and it was recognized throughout Europe and America. Graham Robb, brilliant biographer of Balzac, Hugo, and Rimbaud, examines how homosexuals were treated by society and finds a tale of surprising tolerance. He describes the lives of gay men and women: how they discovered their sexuality and accepted or disguised it; how they came out; how they made contact with like-minded people. He also includes a fascinating investigation of the encrypted homosexuality of such famous nineteenth-century sleuths as Edgar Allan Poe's Auguste Dupin and Sherlock Holmes himself (with glances forward in time to Batman and J. Edgar Hoover). Finally, Strangers addresses crucial questions of gay culture, including the riddle of its relationship to religion: Why were homosexuals created with feelings that the Creator supposedly condemns? This is a landmark work, full of tolerant wisdom, fresh research, and surprises.

A staple throughout the Southern U.S., collard greens are among the healthiest vegetables on earth, and have been proven to help fight viruses, promote lung health and increase brain function. Now that's a lot said: I just like the taste. When I eat junk food I go and eat collard greens afterwards. It's the perfect antidote for me. Love the free shipping, the excellent customer care. I highly recommend this seller

A group of plane crash survivors stranded in the desert with no hope of rescue build a new plane out of parts from their old one in hopes of flying back to civilization. Very suspenseful, with lots of clashing of personalities. What I didn't know this is based on a true story from 1965. Wonderful seller, super fast shipping. Thank you for the book gift The Palace of Holyroodhouse! Super interesting. Greatest seller, fast free shipping A++ all the way!
