A powerful novel of love between women, THE WELL OF LONELINESS brought about the most famous legal trial for obscenity in the history of British law. Banned on publication in 1928, it then went on to become a classic bestseller.

Stephen Gordon (named by a father desperate for a son) is not like other girls: she hunts, she fences, she reads books, wears trousers and longs to cut her hair. As she grows up amidst the stifling grandeur of Morton Hall, the locals begin to draw away from her, aware of some indefinable thing that sets her apart. And when Stephen Gordon reaches maturity, she falls passionately in love - with another woman.

The Well of Loneliness

Acompanhar a história da Stephen desde tão pequena foi incrível e incrivelmente doloroso também.
Muitas partes dela eu consegui me identificar com o que ela estava sentindo.
Tem tanta história, uma vida inteira, nem sei o que destacar, tudo parece importante...
Mas o fim me fez chorar...
