Dear John, I love Jane by Candace Walsh; Laura Andre

Women Write About Leaving Men for Women

The new buzzword in female sexuality is 'sexual fluidity'--the idea that for many women, sexual identity can shift over time, often in the direction of same-sex relationships. Examples abound in popular culture, from actress Cynthia Nixon, who left her male partner of 15 years to be with a woman, to writer and comedienne Carol Leifer, who divorced her husband for the same reason. In a culture increasingly open to accepting this fluidity, 'Dear John, I Love Jane' is a timely, fiercely candid exploration of female sexuality and personal choice. The book is comprised of essays written by a broad spectrum of women, including a number of well-known writers and personalities. Their stories are sometimes funny, sometimes painful--but always achingly honest--accounts of leaving a man for a woman, and the consequences of making such a choice. Arousing, inspiring, bawdy, bold, and heartfelt, 'Dear John, I Love Jane' is an engrossing reflection of a new era of female sexuality.
