Tipping The Velvet

Second-Hand

Excellent condition

Sarah Water's wonderfully lush, sensuous and bawdy debut novel set in the music halls of the late 19th century.

Piercing the shadows of the naked stage was a single shaft of rosy limelight, and in the centre of this was a girl: the most marvellous girl - I knew it at once! - that I had ever seen.

A saucy, sensuous and multi-layered historical romance, Tipping The Velvet follows the glittering career of Nan King - oyster girl turned music-hall star turned rent boy turned East End 'tom'.
