Two Shillings Each: Yellowback Novels & Victorian Literature

A pop-up exhibit at the Rare Book & Manuscript Library 09 October - 20 October 2017 Curated by Claire Berman

Victorian society loved a scandal, and yellowback novels fueled that fire. As a nineteenth-century literary innovation, yellowbacks titillated the senses of the burgeoning English middle class, bringing exciting, and sometimes salacious, literature to them for a low cost. For a mere two shillings, passengers could read swashbuckling adventures, scandalous romances, or titillating horrors while riding the railroad. The Rare Book & Manuscript Library holds a collection of nearly three hundred yellowbacks published between 1847 and 1913. 

falling star is no more we got mushroom star now!

they will be missed.

My bot Rook dusk finally got his name!! Pear stride is now a mama, and despite buttercup paw gruesome death i am very proud of how i drew it. so good moon overall.

fun fact Jagged paw was my favorite sibling out of daisy lotus's kits.

also am i allowed to brag about the dog? i feel so proud of him. sad he killed Short blur, but i love how he looks. :)

I guess mushroom light as a new deputy, i did not expect that. falling star and mushroom light barley know each other and mushroom light has a bit of dislike for falling star so her being chosen for deputy is a bit out the blue.

oh and Loud dice and Orange kite are final having kits. took them long enough.

small explanation for somethings, thunder paw was given to Rook dusk because Yellow back did not want a new apprentice so soon after Rook dusk, and Parsley didn't want his parental feelings ship with thunder paw to get in the way of learning. unfortunately this leaves the only med cat who doesn't understand sign language to teach the deaf apprentice.
