emilypoche 's review for:
Unmentionable: The Victorian Lady's Guide to Sex, Marriage, and Manners
by Therese Oneill
This book is both goofy and informative in equal measures. There’s such a fun way of conveying what’s often horrifying primary source material. It’s very good for anyone who’s ever gotten a little moon-eyed over a good brocade gown and needs a gentle reminder of how good we have it in the stretch-pants and voting rights era.
My only gripe is that the book is pretty narrow in scope. While I distinctly remember the author addressing it in the beginning, I do think a slightly expanded discussion could have only further improved the book.
