quote [ For nearly four decades, from 1757 to 1795, an anonymous publisher in Covent Garden printed and published a small pocketbook-sized annual directory of prostitutes working in Georgian London. The crudely printed little booklet, which originally cost two shillings and sixpence each, carried a description of each lady, including her appearance, her personality, her sexual specialties and the price she charged. ]
Come talk freely in the garden of my lady

Only one way to find out. I've gotten a copy from the internet and I'm off to Covent Garden. I'm interested in meeting this "Guttenberg" chick the text refers to, and experience this "project" of hers.

Look, it's Gutenberg's fault that we don't have cool letters like pilcrow or thorn on a standard keyboard. Bloody German efficiency.
