Dear Ms. Enoch:
I appreciate what the Tantalus Club series is about. In the 19th Century, women held few rights. For many, there were only a few options for a life of independence. Almost all of those choices depended on the use of one's own person as the form of currency, whether the transaction was blessed by marriage or outside the bounds of what was considered appropriate by polite society. Against this setting, you've created a club that is run by women to provide a haven for women....
