Who Was That Woman, Anyway?
Snapshots of a Lesbian Life
Aorewa McLeod
With vivid and often hilarious storytelling, this novel is concerned with what it means to be a woman in the modern world by explores issues of sexuality, identity, and discovering one’s place in the world. Emerging brittle and cynical from a wildly dysfunctional family, Ngaio shifts her career from an ice cream factory to a children’s home to rehab. Along the way, she begins to not only find herself but sexuality–at raucous parties with trainee nurses, in feminist encounter groups and Wiccan covens, in university classrooms, and legendary Sapphic hotspots. This witty, tender, and frank novel delivers moving and memorable snapshots of late 20th century lesbian life.
