Neil McKenna on Fanny and Stella




Waterstones Blog show

Summary: We had the pleasure of speaking to Neil McKenna this afternoon about his book Fanny & Stella: The Young Men Who Shocked Victorian England... It was the scandal that gripped the nation; a story that had everything - gay sex, cross-dressing, prostitution, a state trial, conspiracy... But at the centre says Neil McKenna are two brave young men. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LWONz5YfVWY&feature=youtu.be Read the exclusive blog posts which Neil wrote for us last year in recognition of LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) History Month, where he pieces together and finds a pattern in some fragments from his life as a writer.
