Quote from this book "Here is the procession through the ages of votaries of the Venus Castina - that goddess supposed to respond with synmpathy and understanding to the yearnings of feminine souls locked up in male bodies. It is a curious throng, motley and miscellaneous: gods and demi-gods, coeval with the lovely Castina herself; kings and princes and heroes of old days and modern; frenzied priests and wild-eyed devotees; geniuses and morons, mountebanks, mystics, degenerates, practical jokers and buffoons, rogues and criminals, soft-eyed dreamers of a forbidden ineffable, warriors and poets, artists, statesmen, quacks, hoodlums and harlequins, sinners, and occasionally a saint. Some of us fold tight our togas about us as they pass, fearing contamination. Many of us look on with lively curiosity. A few sit dazed and enraptured beside the shrine of Castina, and seek to understand." opening chapters Secondhand booksellers |
