The Facinating Facts Behind Fainting

   Scythrop Glowry on Jan 13 17:25:22

If you are facinated with victorian literature, history, or writing novels taking place in the victorian era (or all of the above as I am) you will find in this article a feast for the mind. It is indispensable if you wish to write books taking place in the victorian era because it teaches you who, when, and how to have your victorian characters faint. The article has not been "peer checked", but it makes perfect sense with all I've read before and I think it as trustworthy as anything. I do not, however, think bicycles did quite so much as she thought they did. It is also clearly written by someone who is not prejudiced for or against victorians and it has no ads. So enjoy...

Fainting in Victorian Novels and Victorian Life

P.S. It also tempts me to read Wilkie Collins (a victorian domestic-detective fiction writer) books. They sound worthy of recommending and I would read them if I had any interest in detective fiction.
