Fanny by gaslight par Michael Sadleir

Racy book for its time and now seems quaint. Still, an enjoyable story about someone who does not live her life fettered by convention although I am not sure why she doesn't. The story is very big on period detail and I'm sure it is accurate. I especially liked the humorous nickname for Joe Box - Chunks - which I thought sums up the Victorian sense of humour very well.
