Reviews of OUTLANDER from the back of the book

"In the Outlander stories, Jane Rule evokes a startling variety of lesbian lives with the sure-handed artistry that readers have come to expect from her work. In the essays following, she analyzes lesbian and gay concerns with a tough independence of mind that makes the true 'outlander.'" -- Harriet Desmoines and Catherine Nicholson (Co-founders of Sinister Wisdom) "These stories constitute together a powerful investigation into the many varieties of love between and among women. Jane Rule looks with a seasoned eye at the passions and pecadillos of lesbians, in twos, threes, and more. The combinations shift like patterns in a kaleidoscope, enlarging and deepening our understanding of what is possible among women. The essays reveal the author's broad intelligence and balanced good sense on a number of subjects, some of them surprising. Thanks to her for a rich collection, written (as she herself has described her relationship to her characters) with 'tenderness, severity and humor.'" -- Sandy Boucher The Naiad Press, Inc. 1981. 207 pp.
