Описание: ***By the No. 1 Sunday Times bestselling author of THE FIVE***A fascinating expose of the seamy side of eighteenth century life MAIL ON SUNDAYRubenholds pages practically reek with smelly, pox-ridden Georgian Soho GUARDIAN-------------------------------------------------------In 1757, a down-and-out Irish poet, the head waiter at the Shakespears Head Tavern in Covent Garden, and a celebrated London courtesan became bound together by the publication of a little book: Harriss List of Covent Garden Ladies. This salacious work - detailing the names and specialities of the capitals sex-workers- became one of the eighteenth centurys most scandalous bestsellers.

Yet beyond its titillating passages lies a glimpse into the lives of those who lived and died by its profits - a tragicomic opera of the Georgian era, motivated by poverty, passionate love, aspiration and shame. In this modern and visceral narrative, historian Hallie Rubenhold reveals the story behind Harriss List of Covent Garden Ladies, and the legion of ordinary women whose lives in the sex trade history has chosen to ignore. Scrupulously researched DAILY TELEGRAPHCrackles with drama and tension GUARDIANCompelling and ingenious INDEPENDENTWHAT READERS ARE SAYING:This book is an absolute must-read for any person interested in English social history 5 ****Fascinating 5 ****Brilliant.

Full of intelligent insight which brings this period to vibrant life 5 ****

Описание: It was the divorce that scandalised Georgian England... Their marriage had the makings of a fairy tale but ended as one of the most salacious and highly publicised divorces in history. For over two hundred years the story of Lady Worsley, her vengeful husband, and her lover, George Maurice Bisset, lay forgotten.

Описание: THE UNTOLD LIVES OF THE WOMEN KILLED BY JACK THE RIPPER - THE MULTI AWARD-WINNING #1 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER___'An angry and important work of historical detection, calling time on the misogyny that has fed the Ripper myth. Powerful and shaming.' GUARDIAN___Polly, Annie, Elizabeth, Catherine and Mary-Jane are famous for the same thing, though they never met. They came from Fleet Street, Knightsbridge, Wolverhampton, Sweden and Wales.

They wrote ballads, ran coffee houses, lived on country estates, they breathed ink-dust from printing presses and escaped people-traffickers. What they had in common was the year of their murders: 1888. Their murderer was never identified, but the name created for him by the press has become far more famous than any of these five women.

Now, in this devastating narrative of five lives, historian Hallie Rubenhold finally sets the record straight, and gives these women back their stories. ___'Devastatingly good. The Five will leave you in tears, of pity and of rage.' LUCY WORSLEY'Fascinating, compelling, moving.' - BRIDGET COLLINS, author of THE BINDING___Awards for The Five include:- Winner of the BAILLIE GIFFORD PRIZE for Non-fiction - HAY FESTIVAL Book of the Year 2019- Winner of the Goodreads Choice Awards for History PRAISE FOR THE FIVE'Gripping' New York Times'At last, the Ripper's victims get a voice...

Описание: Five devastating human stories and a dark and moving portrait of Victorian London--the untold lives of the women killed by Jack the Ripper

Polly, Annie, Elisabeth, Catherine, and Mary Jane are famous for the same thing, though they never met. They came from Fleet Street, Knightsbridge, Wolverhampton, Sweden, and Wales. They wrote ballads, ran coffeehouses, lived on country estates; they breathed ink dust from printing presses and escaped human traffickers.

What they had in common was the year of their murders: 1888. The person responsible was never identified, but the character created by the press to fill that gap has become far more famous than any of these five women.

For more than a century, newspapers have been keen to tell us that "the Ripper" preyed on prostitutes. Not only is this untrue, as historian Hallie Rubenhold has discovered, but it has prevented the real stories of these fascinating women from being told. Now, in this devastating narrative of five lives, Rubenhold finally sets the record straight, revealing a world not just of Dickens and Queen Victoria, but of poverty, homelessness, and rampant misogyny. They died because they were in the wrong place at the wrong time--but their greatest misfortune was to be born women.
