备用描述
A classic picaresque, TIPPING THE VELVET chronicles the adventures of Nancy King, who begins life as an oyster girl in the provincial seaside town of Whitstable and whose forturnes are forever changed when she falls in love with a cross-dressing music hall singer named Miss Kitty Butler. When Kitty is called up to London for an engagement on "Grease Paint Avenue," Nan follows as her dresser and secret lover. Before long, Nan dons trousers herself, and the two male impersonators become a celebrated pair of the stage. But when Kitty betrays her, a solitary, heartbroken Nan reinvents herself as a butch roue--a sort of Moll Flanders in drag--navigating her way through London's seamy and flourishing gay demimonde as she pursues her thrilling and varied sexual education
