Seller's Description:
Fine + 8vo-over 7¾"-9¾" tall. 246pp. Book new and unread with some very slight shelfwear. First published in 1975, this was a ground-breaking study by novelist Jane Rule (author of lesbian classic 'Desert of the Heart') of a number of brilliant lesbian writers-including Gertrude Stein, Vita Sackville-West, Colette and Willa Cather. She looks at the images of lesbians that these and others have portrayed in fiction, biography and autobiography, and the cultural and religious background that they were writing against-often deeply hostile to lesbians.
