Great piece @Rajeevbalasu. Always thought Keep the Aspidistra Flying very underrated. https://t.co/OwjpSYnz15

Victorian ladies had their own ways of dealing with sexual harassment. (Kendal Mercury, 1837)

@PennamitePLR @emilyrappblack @TwoRoadsBooks Yes, and she writes so beautifully. Fascinating reading perspective of a mother with disability + a disabled child. V nearly finished...

[Lucy Catchpole @queenofjericho]

I am meant to be asleep, but instead I'm reading The Still Point Of The Turning World by Emily Rapp. It's very good. Terribly sad, but good.

Victorian children's books had a way with crowd-pleaser endings.

@OliviaGordon P.S Sorry for the late reply, just saw this!

@OliviaGordon They are men who are, um, attracted to amputees. (Generally women amputees.)
Btw I am ♿️ but not an amputee, for anyone searching the term 😒
