An anthology that revives the spirit of 1950s lesbian pulp fiction for today's readers, pairing rediscovered stories by Lorraine Hansberry and Alice Dunbar-Nelson with new work by writers including Sarah Schulman, Grace Byron and Shamim Sharif. The stories lean into melodrama, dangerous romance and revenge, from a vigilante group to a murder rooted in a high school rivalry between two women to a kidnapping gone wrong.
