Reviews

  • “In this wonderfully vivid study we enter an eighteenth-century labyrinth of mirrors, in which the boundaries of sex/gender are blurred and then refracted through espionage, intrigue and courtly adventure. Conlin's D'Eon reminds us of the timeless complexity and elusiveness of identity, for a contemporary audience too often lectured on its fixedness.”
    - Gina Gwenffrewi, Co-Director of SUISS at the University of Edinburgh

  • “By far the best, most humane and deeply-researched account we have of the celebrated personality of the age of Enlightenment and Revolution, who was baptised a boy but thought otherwise.”
    - Colin Jones, Emeritus Professor of Cultural History at Queen Mary University of London

  • “In one of the most important European eighteenth-century trans narratives, Conlin does not steer away from the complexities that made d'Eon's identity possible: political plots, celebrity culture, and forgery. All were conducive to a story of self-fashioning we need now more than ever.”
    - M.A. Miller, Washington State University
