Críticas:

"To anyone interested in the development of sexual politics and social mores of the period, this book is an invaluable reference work . . . an absorbing read . . . not only an important sociological study, but it serves as a testament to the resilience and courage of this group." --New Times "This richly enjoyable book chronicles official and popular hysterical ignorance, confronted by glorious human perversity." --New Statesman and Society "Lively and scholarly account of the underside of bygone London that concentrates on details, not theories . . . Norton gives a fascinating archaeology of London's homosexual past, its slang and its antics." --Sunday Times "Seldom has a history of London been so entertaining . . . strongly recommended." --Time Out

Reseña del editor:
