Lesbian Travels
A Literary Companion
Lucy Jane Bledsoe
Audre Lorde experiences a wakening in Mexico where she finds a women’s community and a love affair. ‘It was in Mexico that I stopped feeling invisible. In the streets, in the buses, in the markets, in the Plaza, in the particular attention within Eudora’s eyes.’ In ‘Beds’ Judith Barrington humorously handles the Question in hotels in France with her partner: a room with two single beds or a double? Susan Fox Rogers explores how travel can open up the traveler as she voyages to Alaska with her father and converses in ways not possible at home.
Regardless of their destination, lesbian travelers can find in this volume the perfect traveling companion.
