Kuhusu kitabu hiki cha kusikiliza

One of the most influential gay and lesbian novels, The Well of Loneliness recounts the life and loves of Stephen Gordon, a defiant woman who simply wants to be true to herself. Named by a father who wanted a boy, Stephen is a keen fencer, horse rider and lover of women. Her less- than-feminine behaviour causes a rift between her and her mother and eventually she leaves home, living on her own terms and experiencing a series of affairs. Her journey of self-discovery takes her from bohemian Paris to the battlefield of World War One, where she becomes a hero – while we witness her joy and pain at being an ‘other’. Banned for obscenity in 1928 and not republished until 1949, The Well of Loneliness is a compelling exploration of sexuality and gender identity.
