Description

The Well of Loneliness by Radclyffe Hall A pioneering work of literature, The Well of Loneliness charts the development of a young woman who struggles with her identity and desires. Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century Europe, the novel explores themes of love, loss, and self-discovery through the eyes of its protagonist, Stephen Gordon. This edition of the novel provides new insights into Hall's work, situating it within historical contexts and highlighting previously overlooked points of influence and connection to other texts. The editors also shed light on Hall's engagement with key areas of study, including religion, sexology, and literary history.
