Description
From the oyster huts of Whitstable to the music halls of Victorian London, Tipping the Velvet is the glorious first novel from this much-loved author
”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”.
”Erotic and absorbing… Written with startling power” New York Times Book Review
”An unstoppable read, a sexy and picaresque romp through the lesbian and queer demi-monde of the roaries Nineties” Independent on Sunday
”Waters is an extremely confident writer, combining precise, sensuous descriptions with irony and wit” Observer
