Jill (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781528718110)

Following her mother's death and her father's involvement with a gold-digger, aristocrat Jill decides to don the apparel of a lowly maid and travels to London seeking new adventure. Once there, she enters the employ of a mistress with whom she becomes increasingly close. Based on the author's own romantic attachment to another women, "Jill" is a poignant tale of feminism and homosexual desire not to be missed by those with an interest in early feminist and gay literature.
