The Pleasures of Men by Kate Williams
4.0
I have NO idea why this book has such a low average rating. I admit it dissuaded me for many months but I adore Kate Williams and decided to give it go.
I’m so glad I did!
This is a dark, haunting story. I liked the character of Catherine very much. I felt badly for her given the tragedy and darkness that surrounded her all the time. She was a tragic heroine.
The story was well-paced, intriguing and intellectual.
Please don’t be dissuaded by the average reviews here, if you like intellectual, gothic Victorian novels, read this book!
