À propos de cette écoute
Brought to you by Penguin.
For fans of BBC TV's hit series Harlots.
My tale is not for the faint of heart.
Born illegitimate in 18th-century England, Henrietta Lightfoot reveals the truth about the events that shaped her in this candid confessional of a wide-eyed girl's journey to worldliness.
Forced to flee her childhood home for the capital, Henrietta falls face first into a demi-monde of rakes, rogues, wits, pimps and courtesans. It is not long before she realises that true liberty is a privilege to be enjoyed by men. But Henrietta is determined to find independence.
In this deliciously deviant novel, Rubenhold illuminates the dark lives of the women written out of 18th-century literature by the great male writers. Vibrant and full-blooded, it is an enthralling picaresque story for our times.
