Synopsis

Ermyntrude And Esmeralda was written as an exchange of correspondence between two teenage girls who have pledged themselves to find out all they can about sex, love and making babies. By using nursery terms for private parts of the anatomy (bow-wows and pussy cats will never sound the same), Strachey makes all the more ludicrous society's standard reaction of horror to sex and deviation. Serious and amusing, this novella with leave you smiling and thinking.
