The Cremorne
British pornographic magazine / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For the public house, see The Cremorne, Sheffield.
The Cremorne was a pornographic magazine published by William Lazenby in London in 1882 (but falsely backdated to 1851).[1] The title alludes to Cremorne Gardens which had by that time become a haunt of prostitutes. The magazine was a sequel to The Pearl.[2] The Cremorne folded in 1882.[2]
The story "The Secret Life of Linda Brent" is an obscene parody of "Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl", by Harriet Jacobs writing under the pseudonym of Linda Brent. It is in the same vein as "My Grandmother's Tale", previously published in The Pearl.
