I love Sarah Waters’ work. As a writer myself she has heavily inspired me with her plots and her style. But she also has an important part in my life and she was one of the first LGBTQ+ writers I read before I came out. “The Paying Guests” was my first outing into Waters territory and I have been hooked ever since. “Fingersmith” is such a fantastic book and one of my favourites of all time. I cannot wait for the next books she brings out.

Anyone who loves this book must see Park Chan Wook’s take of it in his film “The Handmaiden”

Oh yes definitely it gives justice to the book itself. Which is a majestic masterpiece itself.

@@anonymousp4774from a purely cinematic standpoint, the handmaiden is acomplished. But to say it is faithful to the book is a bit much. Park focuses on the pornography and sensationalises it. There is much more sexual violence in his film, a bit of a trademark really. The sensuality and intimacy present in the book is entirely lost in his version.

I was interested in Victorian torture devices and like in mediaeval times it is male dominated ways of being tortured which makes witch tortures fanciful.
