It's 1832 and a middle-aged English landowner is looking for a wife.
Anne Lister sets her sights on Ann Walker, the wealthy heiress next door. She recounts the explicit details of their courtship in secret code in her diaries, which makes for the riveting story told in the HBO/BBC period drama Gentleman Jack.
When the TV series first aired in 2019, it electrified women around the world and instantly vaulted Lister, aka Gentleman Jack, to lesbian icon status. It also prompted epic transformations among its fans, now documented in Janet Lea's engaging collection of first-person narratives about what she calls "the Gentleman Jack effect."
The illustrated anthology details how a TV show about an unapologetic 230-year-old lesbian inspired women worldwide to embrace their sexuality, discover love and friendship among the burgeoning Gentleman Jack fandom, climb the same mountain Lister was the first person in the world to conquer, morph into history detectives, and embark on pilgrimages to Halifax, Lister's hometown in northern England and now the new lesbian mecca.
The Gentleman Jack Effect further chronicles how a ground-breaking television show ignited the creation of an international lesbian community, mobilized the LGBTQ+ community and its allies to update queer history, and emboldened women, regardless of whom they love, to throw off society's restraints to live fearlessly and fully be themselves. Its timely lessons in risk-taking and self-acceptance are relevant for every woman today.
