ISBN10: 0300118791, ISBN13: 9780300118797, [publisher: Yale University Press, United States] Softcover An arresting history of sex and politics in London during the 1950s and 60s that charts the course of modern British society and the birth of the so-called permissive society A series of spectacular scandals profoundly disturbed London life during the 1950s in ways that had major national consequences. High and low society collided in a city of social and sexual extremes. Patrician men-about-town, young independent women, go-ahead entrepreneurs, Westminster politicians, queer men, and West Indian newcomers played a conspicuous part in dramatic encounters that signaled a new phase of post-Victorian sexual morality. These dramas of pleasure and danger occurred not only in the glamorous and shady entertainment spaces of the West End but also in Whitehall, as well as the twilight zones of the inner city. Frank Mort uncovers the ways in which they transformed national culture. Soho and Notting Hill became beacons for anxieties over the changing character of sex in the city and the cultural impact of decolonization. The old European migrants and the new Caribbean presence were significant factors in the readjustment of urban sexual mores. Morts arresting history of sex and politics in London illustrates a key moment in the making of modern British society. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.

Some slight edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, corners very slightly bruised, not price clipped (no published price), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy. 508pp, illustrated. Did Britain's permissive society start with swinging London? This exciting new account of 1950s London challenges the sexual myth of the 1960s, arguing that its roots lay further back in the city's dramatic cultures of austerity and affluence that marked the post war years. A series of spectacular scandals profoundly disturbed London life during the 1950s in ways that had major national consequences. These transgressive events centred on the collision between high and low society that characterized London as a city of social and sexual extremes. Patrician men about town, young independent women, go ahead entrepreneurs, Westminster politicians, queer men and West Indian newcomers were centre stage in a series of dramatic encounters that opened up a new phase of post Victorian sexual morality. These influential narratives of pleasure and danger, were played out not just in the glamorous and shady entertainment spaces of the West End but in Whitehall and in adjacent twilight zones of the inner city. Frank Mort reveals how they transformed the geopolitical contours of the national culture. ...
