Between Two Women
Conversations About Love & Relationship
Patricia Harrelson
When they came together, everything changed!Married for 33 years and the mother of three grown children, Patricia leads a comfortable life. But one day, she crosses a line into the arms of a woman. Once there, she can’t ignore the emotional intensity she’s discovered. Within three months, she leaves her husband to live with her lover. Facing family and friends who are bewildered and disturbed, Patricia begins to question much of what she has always believed. Confusion permeates her sleep, and night after night, she awakens trembling with uncertainty. Trying to regain balance, she turns to gay and feminist books and publications. But the ideas she finds there further disrupt her sense of self.Then she meets Carol, a sixty-nine-year-old woman who knew from the time she was a child that she was lesbian. A friendship blossoms as Carol tells Patricia the story of her closeted life during the 50s and 60s living with and loving woman. Their conversations are lively with the wit of the elder woman and thoughtfully reflective as Patricia grapples with the consequences of her impulsiveness.Spirited and sensitive, Between Two Women illuminates fundamental questions about the changing nature of love and relationships.
