London and Its Vices

Hodnotenie knihy

Viac o knihe

For over a thousand years, England’s capital has been associated with desire, avarice, and the sins of the flesh. This is the author’s book on vice through the ages. From bath houses and brothels of Roman Londinium, to the stews and Molly houses of the 17th and 18th centuries. London has always traded in the currency of sex. The author takes the reader on a journey through the fleshpots of London from earliest times to present day. The book includes chapters looking at Victorian London and the sexual underground of the 20th century and beyond. Raw and ribald. Fascinating.
