MY SECRET LIFE - THE COMPLETE VOLUMES 1 - 11

			First known cover Vol 1 - 1888

The anonymously written My Secret Life is as scandalous now as it was when first published in the 1880s and is preserved here, in its complete, unedited and unabridged form (Volumes 1 to 11).

Edited and compiled years after the author's death, My Secret Life chronicles the sexual escapades of Walter, a privileged London gentleman. From the "baudy houses" of slums to musty European bars and even the servant quarters of family friends, Walter paints a raw and revealing portrait of Victorian life.

This rare work provides a striking counterpoint to Dickens’ London — offering insight into desires, class, and society's double standards.

"Dr. Wessington-Worth has painstakingly researched the origins of the first printings and their possible authorship. From private subscribers to banned and later unbanned status, very few books have the fascinating history of My Secret Life."
