Unmentionable

Therese Oneill

Have you ever wished you could live in an earlier more romantic era?

Ladies welcome to the 19th century where there's arsenic in your face cream a pot of cold pee sits under your bed and all of your underwear is crotchless. (Why? Shush dear. A lady doesn't question.)

UNMENTIONABLE is your hilarious illustrated scandalously honest (yet never crass) guide to the secrets of Victorian womanhood giving you detailed advice on:

What to wear
Where to relieve yourself
How to conceal your loathsome addiction to menstruating
What to expect on your wedding night
How to be the perfect Victorian wife
Why masturbating will kill you
And more

Irresistibly charming laugh-out-loud funny and featuring nearly 200 images from Victorian publications UNMENTIONABLE will inspire a whole new level of respect for Elizabeth Bennett Scarlet O'Hara Jane Eyre and all of our great great grandmothers.

(And it just might leave you feeling ecstaticallygrateful to live in an age of pants super absorbency tampons epidurals anti-depressants and not-dying-of-the-syphilis-your-husband-brought-home.)
