Show Notes
Alexandra Vasti is back, because her new historical romance Ladies in Hating is out this week!
We are going to talk about:
- Good angsty yearning
- When a character is their love interest’s bitch eating crackers
- Lesbians in history!
- Erotic Victorian fiction
Side trips include historical publishing houses, how nothing in romance is new, and how a lot of our current erotica, including that book where someone schtupps a door, is connected to books with the same sexual pairings in the Victorian era.
You can find your copy of Ladies in Hating wherever you most like to acquire your books. And if your library doesn’t have it, ask them to order it for you!
And don't miss Alexandra's last appearance on the show in Episode 664. Haunted Abbeys and Hidden History with Alexandra Vasti!
