Victorians! discussion

This should be a fast-paced game. I have in mind a Victorian....something. It could be an author, a character, or a book title. Or maybe just a very prominent person.

You can take turns and ask questions that may be answered by "yes" or "no" only. I'll come back to answer the questions. Feel free to ask a question even if another person has asked one but please do not ask more than one question before I get back to answer.
