Description

Queer CityIn Queer City, the acclaimed Peter Ackroyd looks at London in a whole new waythrough the complete history and experiences of its gay and lesbian population. In Roman Londinium, the city was dotted with lupanaria (wolf dens or public pleasure houses), fornices (brothels), and thermiae (hot baths). Then came the Emperor Constantine, with his bishops, monks, and missionaries. And so began an endless loop of alternating permissiveness and censure. Ackroyd

In Queer City, the acclaimed Peter Ackroyd looks at London in a whole new way–through the complete history and experiences of its gay and lesbian population. In Roman Londinium, the city was dotted with lupanaria (“wolf dens” or public pleasure houses), fornices (brothels), and thermiae (hot baths). Then came the Emperor Constantine, with his bishops, monks, and missionaries. And so began an endless loop of alternating permissiveness and censure. Ackroyd takes us right into the hidden history of the city; from the notorious Normans to the frenzy of executions for sodomy in the early nineteenth century. He journeys through the coffee bars of sixties Soho to Gay Liberation, disco music, and the horror of AIDS. Ackroyd reveals the hidden story of London, with its diversity, thrills, and energy, as well as its terrors, dangers, and risks, and in doing so, explains the origins of all English-speaking gay culture.

Delicate pretty glitter, but pungent
This leaves a beautiful tiny glitter. Beware this glitter will get everywhere and it’s highly perfumed. If you’re smell sensitive or want to avoid getting too much mess, I highly recommend using the spray outside.

Not worth the money
Warning. Don't buy this!!! After shaking the glitter spray, then spraying it on my arm, the stuff comes out in one large clump of small sparkles. You can't even distribute it evenly with your hand. Also, you cannot return the item for a refund unless there was a problem with delivery.
