From an essay on &#8216;being&#8217; Superman as a kid to ones on rafting and skydiving; from getting arrested for political activism to the overwhelming and complicated urge to procreate, these pieces seek to represent the unexplored territory in modern lesbian life. Including work from Lucy Jane Bledsoe, Marcia Munson, Karla Jay, Linnea Due, among many others, these personal essays and memoirs with their sharp insight and complexly rendered moments, pairing humor with serious political thought, make up a wholly original and utterly compelling anthology.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<div>\n<h2>Details<\/h2>\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n .TFtable<br \/> .TFtable td<br \/> \/*  Define the text for all the 2nd columns  *\/<br \/> .TFtable td:nth-child(2)<br \/><\/style>\n<table class=\"TFtable\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><b>ISBN: <\/b>9780312209711<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Genre: <\/b>Non-Fiction<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Subject: <\/b>Lesbians &#8211; United States &#8211; Anecdotes; Lesbians &#8211; United States &#8211; Identity; Lesbians &#8211; United States &#8211; Social Life And Customs; Lesbians\/ United States\/ Anecdotes; Lesbians\/ United States\/ Identity<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Publication Date: <\/b>1999-07-28<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Publisher: <\/b>Stonewall Inn Editions<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Language: <\/b>English<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Format: <\/b>Paperback<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Rating:<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Notes: <\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Book_ID: <\/b>258016<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Women on the Verge | Susan Fox Rogers | Women on the Verge is a lively, eclectic collection that explores the &#8216;ecstatic moment&#8217; in lesbian life &#8211; those clarifying and defining experiences (o<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":36848,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4349],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-36847","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-non-fiction"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.2 (Yoast SEO v27.3) -
