"You do not know me..but be forewarned dear reader, I certainly know you"
Engraving by George Vertue, 1725
The perspective of an angry green parrot was used by Eliza Haywood back in 1746 to point out problematic elements of 18th century. Now, as ShooBoo’s post highlights, those writings (originally published as The Parrot) are being re-released. If you’re reminded of Lady Whistledown from Bridgerton, you’re not wrong!
