Inhalt
»The Well of Loneliness« is probably the most famous lesbian novel ever written. It contains no explicit sex scenes, yet in 1928, the year in which the novel was published, it was deemed obscene in a British court for its defense of sexual inversion and was forbidden for sale or import into England. Its author, Radclyffe Hall, was already well-known as a writer and West End celebrity then. This literary biography offers a look at the entire range of Hall's published and unpublished works of fiction, poetry, and autobiography and reads through them to demonstrate how she continually played with the details of her life to help fashion her own identity as well as to bring into existence a public lesbian culture. Along the way, the author revises many of the truisms about Hall that had their origins in the memoirs of her long-term partner, Una Troubridge.
