Pleasure Wars: The Bourgeois Experience Victoria to Freud (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780393318272)

The Victorians in this richly peopled narrative maneuvered through decades marked by frequent shifts in taste, some seeking safety in traditional styles, others drawn to the avant-garde of artists, composers, and writers.
