I'm looking for an old, well-written, femme for femme lesbian romace novel.
I like Jane Austen's and Charlotte Brontë's writing style, but since I'm into women, I could never fully relate to their books.
I read Sarah Waters already, but her style still reads a bit too modern for me, and very few of her books are actually femme for femme.
I also read Carmila and liked it – but it just doesn't feel complete, the romance seems a bit repressed, not as graphic as a real relationship.
So I'm looking for more – I'd prefer if the book was actually written a century ago (or centuries, the older, the better), had quality prose and included a well-drawn lesbian relationship in which both women are feminine presenting.

Would you take a suggestion from an old man into history? [Anne Lister](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anne_Lister) diaries. Her five-million-word diary was mostly written in code. We still don’t know it all. Utterly brilliant woman.
