Book Description
Connecting the cultural domains of religion, sex, and work, this book encompasses aspects of feminist theory, post-structuralist materialisms, Victorian thought, and two prominent 19th-century women's novels (Charlotte Brontë's Villette and George Eliot's Middlemarch)—to understand desire between women as a form of "spiritual materialism."
