Customer Reviews

Excellent assortment of authors

Some of the best fiction from the past thru 1990. I can't say who I enjoyed more, although I did buy it initially when I saw that one of the short stories was from the terrific author Lee Lynch. This is a Keeper! 28 fabulous stories, including titles from the outstanding authors - Willa Cather; Joan Nestle; Jewelle L. Gomez Jess Wells; Judith McDaniel Valerie Miner; Leslea Newman; Ida Swearingen Lee Lynch; Sarah Schulman; Dorothy Allison; Also there are Author Biographies at the end. From the web - The 28 stories in the volume range from the daring and erotic "Eat" by Sapphire to Dorothy Allison's energetic Southern tale "A Lesbian Appetite" to Valerie Miner's suspenseful "Trespassing". Whether it's the joy or loss of love, the difficulty of family relations, or the pain of death, these stories bring to life the unique lesbian experience.
