Sobre este artículo
Corgi Books, 1968. Good. The 1968 Corgi reprint. MMP. Rubbed, spine creased. Tanned edges and toned pages, as expected with age. POI to half title. Else, clean and tight. One of the many pulp reprints of Hall's novel that followed the Falcon Press reissue of 1949. Corgi went for the strap-line: 'The classic novel of Lesbian love'. N.B. Doesn't include the Havelock Ellis preface.
Sinopsis
The Well of Loneliness is a 1928 lesbian novel by the English author Radclyffe Hall. It follows the life of Stephen Gordon, an Englishwoman from an upper-class family whose "sexual inversion" (that is, homosexuality) is apparent from an early age. She finds love with Mary Llewellyn, whom she meets while serving as an ambulance driver in World War I, but their happiness together is marred by social isolation and rejection, which Hall depicts as having a debilitating effect on inverts.
