Two young Magdaleneans of our acquaintance attended a”steampunk” wedding in Denver, and from what I could see caught the Mechano- Victorian essence of that subculture better than anyone. Although the style is often credited to this book (and Lord Byron’s daughter is always a founding character) it is really a VISUAL style and came into its own in graphic novels like The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. I think that Torie and Adrienne embody it perfectly!
