They say don't judge a book by its cover, but it's human nature to instinctively do it. On this cover, I've placed a framed picture of my husband as he was in life, with the words "They didn't listen, they didn't know how," indicating from where he is right now, he can see a bigger picture. I say "framed" because there is evidence indicating he was a diabetic, but in fact, he was suffering from something else. The back cover has a selection of photographs of him enjoying life against a background of honeycomb with the inscription "Life became too sweet for me." I invite you to read on with an open mind!

Dress, Distress and Desire explores representations of sartorial experience in eighteenth-century literature. Batchelor's study brings together for the first time canonical and non-canonical texts including novels, conduct books and women's magazines to investigate the pressures that the growth of the fashion market placed on conceptions of female virtue and propriety. It shows how dress dispelled the sentimental myth that the body acted as a moral index and enabled the women reader to resist some of sentimental literature's more prescriptive advice.
