Places of tenderness and heat : the queer milieu of fin-de-si�ecle St. Petersburg

Petri, Olga 1985- (author.).

Summary: "The emphasis of this book is as much on the routine behaviors of queer men, ranging from informal socialization to outright sexual transgression, as it is about the efforts of constables, administrators, government officials, and sanitary inspectors to maintain moral order. Petri describes a surprisingly stable entente between illicit communion and municipal authorities' paternalistic ambitions"
