Our #bowiebookclub pick this month was the delightfully steamy, seamy #Fingersmith by Sarah Waters, a novel of deception, doublecross, and people being absolute fucksters to each other.

Fingersmith by Sarah Waters — The Bowie Book Club Podcast

The Bowie Book Club
Director Park Chan-wook get's a shout-out for the film 'The Handmaiden' (2016) based on this month's #BowieBookClub pick 'Fingersmith' by Sarah Waters.
The author is already a fan of 'Fingersmith' "...a sexy, twisty, and sumptuous novel set in Victorian England." but thinks Chan-wook's film is EVEN BETTER!
Must see, obviously.

13 Adaptations Better Than the Books They’re Based On

Most of the time, when a beloved book is adapted into a film, or even into a television show, a form with a little more elbow room, shall we say, the magic doesn’t quite translate. Which isn&…

@dsharman Oh, one more, I'm not sure if you've seen it, check out: #TheHandmaiden.

It's a Korean movie released in 2016. It was #KimTaeRi's second movie, and which catapulted her to stardom.

According to MyDramaList, the story was based on the novel #Fingersmith by Welsh writer #SarahWaters. Instead of the setting in Victorian era Britain, it was adapted into Korea during the Japanese colonial era.

It's a masterpiece. An art. ^_^

Absolutely LOVING our #BowieBookClub book this month. #Fingersmith by #sarahwaters.
Period #class drama, family secrets, #victorian London underworld, secret #sapphic romance! @bookstodon

"The sensation novel teems with 'ladies in peril', vulnerable women and girls who are victims. But it’s also full of female protagonists who are swindlers and schemers in their own right – glorious transgressors of social norms."

One of my absolute favourite books 💙 It was reading #Fingersmith when I realised I could have #sapphic women at the heart of my writing; I didn't need to justify why. @bookstodon

‘My diabolical delight’ – Sarah Waters on her rip-roaring, salacious classic Fingersmith

As her thrilling story of swindlers preying on an heiress turns 20, the author recalls the sinful inspiration Victorian pornography gave her – and the fans who turned their favourite lines into tattoos• Warning: contains spoilers

#SarahWaters is one of my favourite writers. I remember being blown away by #Fingersmith The only one I’m less keen on is #TheLittleStranger. I think that the time and setting were less appealing to me than her other books. I love a bit of #GothicFiction

不行我还是得再安利一下 #MyDaysOfMercy ,这个 scene 我从昨天晚上看完也就反复重播了几十遍吧,以前从来 get 不到 Mara 姐妹的颜尤其是 Kate(大概是 #纸牌屋 Zoey 这个角色真的是太稳准狠钢铁直了),看完这个电影超级被圈粉(可惜她近两年演得好少)沉迷集活泼主动调情与含蓄内敛不骚于一身的大姐姐无法自拔。

没找到好的 mkv 截取方法所以只有部分无声版,凡是看姬片的一定要去找原片看一下,我觉得可能是我近两年看过最好的姬片了虽然结尾不太满意。超过她妹妹和大魔王(福利太少节奏太慢没糖),超过烧女图(糖少且床戏不行),可能在我心目中的地位能跟 BBC 版 #Fingersmith 相提并论了( #小姐 同原著改编,但小姐太直男气猎奇了我觉得远不如 Fingersmith )(另外这个部分后面有好多福利我就不截了免得剧透 hhhh

Wtf. I did not expect the twist at the end of part 1 of Fingersmith.
And i didn't like it. That's a bit weak.
I'm seriously upset because of it.
Maybe there is a happy ending at the end of the book. Maybe not. I seriously don't want to read on to find out.
