A daring, emotionally charged novel that shattered taboos in 1928, this groundbreaking work follows Stephen Gordon, a woman born into privilege but condemned to social exile for her love of other women. The Well of Loneliness faced fierce censorship and legal battles soon after its initial publication when it was charged with obscenity, making it a beacon of resilience and defiance. More than a story, it's a rallying cry for visibility, dignity, and authenticity: "Give us also the right to our existence." Rediscover this groundbreaking work that shaped queer history.

Radclyffe Hall (1880 - 1943) was an English poet and author. The name Radclyffe Hall was a pen name; she was born Marguerite Radclyffe-Hall. She was out as a lesbian who lived with several long-term partners throughout her life. The Well of Loneliness was her best-known work and would receive, during Hall's lifetime, a wealth of both support and condemnation. Those who opposed the book succeeded in having it banned in the UK in 1928, the same year it was originally published. The ban would not be overturned until after Hall's death.
