Edith’s maid, Annie, while otherwise excellent in carrying out her duties, is ill tempered and disrespectful, so Dr. Damian Thatch has Edith bring her to him for a consultation. His suggested cure for such behavior in a maid is spanking and birching, which he demonstrates to his enthusiastic stepsister. Edith takes particular delight in the control she has over Annie when she strips her maid for punishment, but she soon realizes that she wants more. Rather than simply punish her maid, Edith wants to take her as a man might. But the only female body she has ever touched has been her own, and what if Annie resists such treatment from her mistress? Annie senses the sadistic urges developing in her mistress and is afraid that Edith will be severe in delivering punishments. She appeals to Damian for a medical solution to help control her behavior, but a maid cannot afford the services of a London physician. Damian, however, tells her of an alternative form of treatment that a mistress might perform on her maid, setting up Edith's first-time lesbian encounter with Annie bound and spread on Damian's consulting couch. This is an adult only work of Victorian erotica fiction involving bondage, spanking, buggering, sadism, masochism, BDSM, and first-time lesbianismZum Buch

Neil Gaiman is one of the most widely known writers of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, having produced fiction and nonfiction, fantasy and horror, television, comics, and prose. He often attributes this eclecticism to his "compost heap" approach to writing, gathering inspiration from life, religion, literature, and mythology. Readers love to sink into Gaiman's medieval worlds—but what makes them "medieval"? Shiloh Carroll offers an introduction to the idea of medievalism, how the literature and culture of the Middle Ages have been reinterpreted and repurposed over the centuries, and how the layers of interpretation have impacted Gaiman's own use of medieval material. She examines influences from Norse mythology and Beowulf to medieval romances and fairy tales in order to expand listeners' understanding and appreciation of Gaiman's work, as well as the rest of the medievalist films, TV shows, and books that are so popular today.Zum Buch
