商品簡介
A portrait of one woman's life, Sex Variant Woman provides a look at lesbian life in the era before Stonewall and at the interplay between feminism and gay and lesbian liberation. Spanning from the late-nineteenth century - an era that has been referred to as "the female world of love and ritual" - to the rise of the Gay Liberation Movement of the 1970s, from an era of alienation and isolation to one of collective consciousness, Jeannette Howard Foster's life is a study of lesbian struggle, empowerment, and triumph amidst the persistent hostilities of twentieth-century America.
