Feels wrong to celebrate while academia is on 🔥, but this week I got the lovely cover for my long overdue book *The Sweet Taste of Empire: Sugar, Mastery and Pleasure in the Anglo Caribbean* forthcoming from UPenn Press!

read the story of the old duke and his young lover turned usurper in Urania I !!! Pp 34-37 in Roberts’s edition. I’ll post Hathi link and page in comments. The most tender, pathetic, hilarious story that ends in spontaneous combustion!
