Cover of Palatable poison

Palatable poison

"Palatable Poison gathers together classic essays on Radclyffe Hall's book—beginning with Havelock Ellis and early reviews—as well as new pieces by such contemporary critics as Esther Newton, Judith Halberstam, Teresa de Lauretis, and Terry Castle. Providing an understanding of how views of the book have changed over time and covering such topics as fetishism, inversion, and melancholy, the collection presents new and provocative ideas about the immense cultural impact of The Well of Loneliness and its unique place in the literature of sexual nonconformity"—Publisher.
