'Brilliantly original . . . endlessly fascinating and full of surprises' – Alice Loxton, author of Eighteen'An intricate cultural history . . . thought-provoking' - The Sunday Times'A nuanced, thoughtful history of this slippery concept' – Kate Fox, author of Watching the EnglishA Financial Times 'What to read in 2025' BookFrom ancient times to our digital present, Strangers and Intimates traces the dramatic emergence of private life, and argues that it is now in mortal danger.

In this sweeping history, acclaimed cultural historian Tiffany Jenkins takes readers on an epic journey, from the strict separations of public and private in ancient Athens to the moral rigidity of the Victorian home, and from the feminists of the 1970s who declared that ‘the personal is political’ to the boundary-blurring demands of our digital age.

Strangers and Intimates is both a celebration of the private realm and a warning: as social media, surveillance and the expectations of constant openness reshape our lives, Jenkins asks a timely question: can private life survive the demands of the twenty-first century?

“Holy Sun Protection, Batman! This Stuff Works!” 🦇🦸‍♂️
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The COOLA Organic Sunscreen SPF 50 Sunblock is the real deal. It goes on smooth, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t leave behind that greasy, chalky layer most sunscreens do. I put it to the test during a full day outdoors, and it held strong—no burns, no irritation, just solid protection. What makes it even better is the formula: not overloaded with harsh chemicals, but still highly effective. It feels more like skincare than sunscreen, which makes reapplying far less of a chore. If Batman and Robin swapped their capes for beach towels, this would be the sunblock in their utility belts—powerful protection, clean ingredients, and a formula that actually works when the heat is on. 🦇☀️ Would you like me to also create short funny one-liner summaries for each review (like quick taglines), so you have both the full review and a quick punchy line to use?
