Tales of the Lavender Menace
A Memoir of Liberation
Karla Jay
A fast-paced memoir, serious and hilarious in turn, of the struggles and scandals, politics and personalities that made up the women’s and gay liberation movements of the 1960s and ’70s. Karla Jay, a direct participant in the dramatic history of the women’s and gay liberation movements, brings on stage a dazzling cast of unforgettable characters and gives voice to the sweeping tale of the activists who struggled for their vision of social justice and sexual liberation. ‘Karla Jay’s intimate account of life in the early years of feminism and gay liberation is as irresistible as a novel, but as credible, humorous, and unexpected as real life.’ -Gloria Steinem ‘A glorious guide to the perplexed seeking the complex, a history that illuminates a way out of passivity and despair.’ -Tony Kushner
