Chargement... The Hermaphroditepar Julia Ward Howe
![]() Aucun Actuellement, il n'y a pas de discussions au sujet de ce livre. ![]() ![]() A fragmentary, unfinished, rather-rough-in-places novel from the point of view of a hermaphrodite, but fascinating nonetheless. The most exciting scenarios are used up pretty early on in the book, when the narrator comes closest to having sexual relationships with first a woman and then a man. But I was surprised to find that even the other, less sexy stuff held my interest. Howe raises a lot of interesting ideas and questions about sex, gender, and love in the 19th century. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Appartient à la série éditoriale
This extraordinary novel was written in the 1840s, and addresses issues of sexuality that remain as current today. The chief character, Laurence, describes life as a hemaphrodite, attractive to both sexes, but responsive to neither, in a richly imagined tale of coming of age at odds with culture.
