For the first time, and drawing on original research, Jad Adams describes the lives and work of these vibrant and passionate women, from well-connected and fashionable aristocrats to the desperately poor. He narrates the challenges they faced in a literary marketplace, and within a society that overwhelmingly favored men, showing how they were pioneers of a new style, living lives of lurid adventure and romance, as well as experiencing poverty, squalor, disease, and unwanted pregnancy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Reaktion Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/20\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781789147896\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 400","brand":"Jad Adams","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43205120819381,"sku":"9781789147896","price":25.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_027c956a-666f-4be8-b235-3be008686c63.jpg?v=1698128925","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/decadent-women-yellow-book-lives-9781789147896","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
