Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the secretive world of lesbianism in 18th-century France. Drawing on firsthand accounts and police reports from the era, the author exposes the hidden lives of women who defied societal norms to indulge in forbidden pleasures. The book explores the complex motivatio…ns and social dynamics that drove these women to seek fulfillment outside the confines of traditional relationships. Against the backdrop of a society steeped in libertine excess, the author paints a vivid picture of the clandestine "serai" â" luxurious brothels where elite women could discreetly indulge in same-sex affairs. These establishments were managed by notorious procuresses who catered to the desires of wealthy patrons, both male and female. Through the prism of these hidden encounters, the book sheds light on the fluidity of gender and sexuality in a world on the cusp of revolution. The author's meticulous research and evocative prose bring to life the desires and struggles of these women, revealing the surprising prevalence and acceptance of lesbianism within elite circles of the time.
