Description
A Marriage Below Zero by Alan Dale explores the complexities of late-nineteenth-century British society through a first-person narrative. In this groundbreaking novel, a young woman's life is turned upside down as she discovers her husband's secret relationship with another man. Published in 2017, A Marriage Below Zero reflects the anxieties and fears surrounding homosexuality, women's roles in marriage, and the emerging threat of illicit desire during the Victorian era. This edition includes rare excerpts from pro-homosexual tracts, scientific documents, feminist commentary, and newspaper accounts of same-sex scandals, offering a unique glimpse into the era's attitudes towards sex and relationships. This Broadview Press edition provides a fascinating insight into a pivotal moment in British literary history, shedding light on the social and cultural context that shaped the novel's themes and messages.
