Feasting with Panthers
A New Consideration of Some Late Victorian Writers
Description:... "Feasting with Panthers is an illuminating study of certain notorious and brilliant Victorians. The great flowering of decadent art toward the end of the nineteenth century has prompted Rupert Crofte-Cook to examine the lives and the works of the most famous and influential writers of that time-- the men who made a cult out of their sexual idiosyncrasies, who created an esthetic from their perversity, and who managed to initiate a revolution in morality that continues today" -Publisher.
