About this book
In a time when societal norms were rigidly enforced, "The Phœnix of Sodom; or, the Vere Street Coterie" by Robert Holloway unveils the scandalous underbelly of early 19th-century London. This audacious treatise exposes the clandestine activities of the Vere Street Coterie, a group notorious for their defiance against prevailing moral codes. Holloway's work intricately details the "gambols" of these ancient lechers, juxtaposing them with the "modern refinements in Sodomitical practices." Ideal for historians and civic activists, this document challenges readers to confront the complexities of sexual identity and societal hypocrisy. Delve into this provocative exploration of forbidden desires and the enduring struggle for acceptance in a world steeped in prejudice.
