An eclectic mix of erotica ..Great for lovers of The Pearl

The Boudoir was a six issue serial periodical so popular in Victorian times giving the reader of the times some of the sauciest gossip of the well and 'ner to do's', ribald stories, bawdy humourous stories, poetry, an advice column, and finally of course, a serialized erotic story ..... All six of these issues are reproduced in this book in the same manner as they were first printed. The erotic story in this book is titled 'Three Chums: A Tale of London Everyday Life' and consist of the narrator, Charlie, and his two cousins, Harry and Frank, and their adventures with young ladies of the times. For the student of Victorian times and writings it's a greta book and that is why I rated it five stars, BUT, for the admirer of erotica, debauchery and the perversions of the time then skip it because trust me you're not going to like the dumb humour and definitely the poetry will drive you nuts.....
