Fanny & Stella Sunday Times lead review
20 Jan 2013
Congratulations to Neil McKenna whose Fanny and Stella is lead review today in the Sunday Times. Dominic Sandbrook wrote :
This rollicking account of the trial of two middle-class cross-dressers unveils one of the most extraordinary legal dramas of the Victorian age… this rich and absorbing book.. McKenna has done a tremendous job of re-creating Victorian London’s gay subculture, weaving newspaper reports, police documents and contemporary diaries into a jolly and rollicking narrative… Fanny and Stella is a cracking read.
