And Say Hi to Joyce by Joyce Murdoch; Deb Price

Good, 4 stars

'Deb Price and Joyce Murdoch have guts.  Their love for each other--and their commitment to  proving the validity and humanity of that love--is,  in their hands, a powerful and wonderful weapon.  Long may they wield it.'--Liz Smith,  The Advocate This collection from the  Detroit News columns of Deb Price blends the best of  Bombeck, Maupin, and Quindlen, gently humanizing  gay issues for straight readers and giving gay  readers an honest reflection of their own lives. Deb  joins forces with Joyce here to share not only in  the joy of the first twenty months of Deb's columns  but also to tell how the column is changing lives  by knocking down barriers that set people apart.  This is a reprint of a Doubleday hardcover  published in June, 1995. 'And Say Hi To  Joyceis both a valuable collection of an  engaging columnist's work and an interesting look behind  the scenes of the newspaper milieu. But it's more;  it's a heartwarming portrait of what seems a  remarkable relationship--one any reader, gay or  straight, might envy.'--The Washington  Blade 'And Say Hi To  Joyce, we get the results of Price's  groundbreaking experiment: a rich collection of columns that  serves as a concise history of the gay rights  movement in the '90s.'--San Francisco  Chronicle
