#the first nonfiction I’ve found other than David Beasley or parallel lives that has anything of substance on nance O’Neil#this focuses on her queerness#AND!!!! most of all!#it is primarily about HER#her relationship with Lizzie Borden is included but it is not the sole focus of the essay#and it talks about Nance’s life outside of Lizzie#which is amazing#I didn’t know this book existed until last week#I think because it was from a university press so it probably didn’t get super wide distribution when it was first published#I’m just surprised I haven’t come across it sooner in my nance O’Neil research#but thank you to whichever kind soul uploaded it to archive.org literally two weeks ago#the scan is low res and nearly unreadable on my phone screen#but I was able to find it#and then get a copy from eBay immediately#currently reading#queer history#theatre history#nance O’Neil
