30 Days of Pride Day 8- Radclyffe Hall and Una Troubridge

Hall was a writer and poet, best known for the novel The Well of Loneliness, a groundbreaking work in LGBTQ literature. Troubridge was a a British sculptor and translator, who notably introduced the French writer Colette to English readers. The couple lived together for almost 30 years, ending with Hall’s death at 53. They did not pretend to be “companions” or “friends”, but lived openly as a lesbian couple, despite the societal expectations placed on them. Troubridge would wear her late lover’s clothes and had them altered so that she could continue to do so.
