a Bunny bunny!

The world doesn't really need a story in which Bunny Manders, shattered and penniless after (spoiler!) (skip) Raffles' death and his own serious injury during the Second Boer War,, comes home and meets George Ives. And Ives introduces him to the Order of Chaeronea as well as having a brief but affectionate affair with him, and persuades Bunny to write about Raffles as both emotional therapy and a form of covert homophile propaganda.

Does it?

Matt has also either published or in press
'Families of Choice? George Ives, Queer Lives and the Family', in Gender and History (forthcoming 2010)
and
'Sex Lives and Diary Writing: the Journals of George Ives', in David Amigoni, ed., Life Writing and Victorian Culture (Ashgate, 2006)
He also did the ODNB entry for Ives, which I could email to you as I have access at work, if you're at all interested.
