The Monkey’s Mask
Dorothy Porter
Porter offers us a crime thriller covering the travails of a lesbian detective. Detective Jill Fitzpatrick begins her search for Mickey, a 19-year-old girl who has gone missing under suspicious circumstances. One the search for the truth in what becomes a murder mystery, Jill meets and is seduced by Diana Maitland, Mickey’s former poetry teacher.
Porter wrote the book as a poem with a narrative verse across the storyline.
I wanted my body
to be Diane’s poison
I wanted someone to pass her
the bottle
love, love
oh poisonous love
Each chapter is a poem, from the strange to the erotic, and each advancing a portion of the tale in one way or another. For the brave reader who isn’t afraid of mayhem in the margins and gender politics jumping from the page. ~ Sue Molyneaux for LesbianFunWorld
