Beebo Brinker
Ann Bannon
Beebo Brinker is the last book in Ann Bannon’s Beebo Brinker Chronicles. This book introduces the reader to the central character, Beebo, as a prequel. She is a handsome, young butch woman who travels to New York City. Still wearing a dress, the naive Beebo turns on her butch charm and soon has all the Greenwich Village femmes eating out of her hand. Beebo falls for Paula, then becomes a secret play toy for Venus, a wealthy, secretly bisexual movie star. She helps care for Venus’s son and avoid her husband until the media catch on. Beaten both literally and emotionally, Beebo returns to the living arms of NYC and the tender heart of Paula. The Chronicles has been transformed into a well-received play.
