If Walls Could Talk Worsley Lucy
Why did the flushing toilet take two centuries to catch on? Why did medieval people sleep sitting up? Why did Samuel Pepys never give his mistresses an orgasm?
Why did gas lighting cause Victorian ladies to faint? When were the two 'dirty centuries'? Why, for centuries, did people fear fruit?
All these questions will be answered in this juicy, smelly and truly intimate history of home life. Lucy Worsley takes us through the bedroom, bathroom, living room and kitchen, covering the architectural history of each room, but concentrating on what people actually did in bed, in the bath, at the table, and at the stove. From sauce-stirring to breast-feeding, teeth-cleaning to masturbation, getting dressed to getting married, this book will make you see your home with new eyes.
