Revolutionary anthology for all Amazons Tribades and Warexx'
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
"...if men knew about her, they might clandestinely worry that she could be the 'superior' strain...they would have no more idea what they were thinking than ever they've done" (pg 544). A magnificent anthology for Hags of the Revolution. Remembers and revives our Separatist past and fuels the Lesbian laughter (Marilyn Murphy, 'Looking for Lesbians' ), Lesbian knowledge (Pat Parker,'Boots Are Being Polished') and Lesbian anger (Ruth Byrn, 'The Warexx') of our future. In the words of Elana Dykewomon, 'Lesbian culture is the manifestation of appetite let loose in womyn' - this anthology is a fine record of these Dyke feedings. It also strengthens our Labryth against the queer, liberal and s/m onslaughts. Long live editors Julia Penelope and Susan J. Wolfe........and Valarie Solanas!
