Sinossi
We were all more or less thieves at Lant Street. But we were that kind of thief that rather eased the dodgy deed along, than did it ... We could pass anything, anything at all, at speeds which would astonish you. There was only one thing, in fact, that had come and got stuck - one thing that had somehow withstood the tremendous pull of that passage - one thing that never had a price put to it. I mean of course, Me.'
Sue Trinder, orphaned at birth, is born among petty thieves - fingersmiths - in London's Borough. From the moment she draws breath, her fate is linked to another orphan, growing up in a gloomy mansion not too many miles away . . .
A modern day Dickens, Sarah Waters is one of Britain's rising stars.

Sarah Waters is one of the best storytellers alive today (Matt Thorne, INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY)
Fingersmith is the third slice of engrossing lesbian Victoriana from Sarah Waters. Although lighter and more melodramatic in tone than its predecessor Affinity, this hypnotic suspense novel is awash with all manner of gloomy Dickensian leitmotifs: pickpoc (Travis Elborough, AMAZON.CO.UK REVIEW)
Descrizione del libro
*From the Sunday Times Young Novelist of the Year, author of Tipping the Velvet and Affinity, comes a story of fraud, insanity and secrets worthy of Wilkie Collins
