Gentlemen Callers

In Bridgerton, a young woman of great fortune is pursued from the moment a man finds them attractive. The callers, as they’re addressed in the show, arrive with a bouquet of flowers for the woman they’re trying to charm. Some bring other gifts while the uniquely talented ones perform by reciting poetry to win a lady’s affection. If a lady is harder to reach, more men begin to line up at her door waiting for a chance to say hello. Marina Thompson, a melanated gem, had callers at her home back to back and she wasn’t even looking for a man.
