Description

My Secret Life Vol. 1-3 is a memoir of the author’s sexual experiences and education over the course of multiple decades. Beginning with his first experiences with sexuality as a child, Walter (as he calls himself) recounts in detail all of his sexual exploits and conquests, painting an erotic and revealing portrait of sexual exploration in the Victorian era.

Neither how much of is fictionalized, nor the real identity of the pseudonymous Walter have ever been determined with any certainty. Despite this, My Secret Life is often used as a reference in social studies of the Victorian period because it is unusual for the time with its forthright style and open discussion of sex.
