Description
These outstanding diaries are a work of lost lesbian history. Anne Lister defied the role of womanhood seen within the novels of Jane Austen: she used to be daring, fiercely independent, a landowner, industrialist, traveller and lesbian. She kept in depth diaries, written partially in code, of her lifestyles and loves. The diaries have been edited via Helena Whitbread, who spent years interpreting and transcribing them.
