ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

The Paying Guests by Sarah Waters is a historical novel set in post-World War I London, exploring themes of desire, class, and societal constraints. The story follows Frances Wray, a young woman living with her widowed mother in financial decline. They take in a married couple, the Barbers, as paying guests, which disrupts their quiet life. As Frances becomes drawn to Lilian Barber, an illicit affair ensues, leading to emotional turmoil and moral dilemmas. The novel examines sexual identity, the consequences of personal choices, and the complexities of relationships against the backdrop of a changing social landscape.
