The Imagined story of Anne Webber, the last woman on the island of Samson, part of the Isles of Scilly archipelago.
"In my opinion, Samson got all the beauty. She’s got a tucked in waist right in the middle, as if she breathed in to wear her corset of granite.
We don’t hold with corsets ‘ere of course, but we’ve had a few washed up on East Porth and we weren’t sure what they were at first? Some sort of device for torture Liza Hicks reckoned, but then her mother had seen one in the shop over Hugh Town along with some lacy drawers, so we reckoned some man had designed them for women so they couldn’t draw breath fully, and therefore, couldn’t wander off."
