Beebo Brinker

by Ann Bannon - £11.99  Cleis Press (2001)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9781573441254 | ISBN 10: 1573441252

The classic 1950s love story from the queen of lesbian pulp fiction.
 
She never knew what she wanted - until she came to Greenwich Village and found the love that smolders in the shadows of the twilight world.

"When I was young, Bannon's books let me imagine myself into her New York City neighborhoods of short-haired, dark-eyed butch women and stubborn, tight-lipped secretaries with hearts ready to be broken. Her books come close to the kind of books that had made me feel fatalistic and damned in my youth, but somehow she just managed to sustain a sense of hope. And of course, there was her romantic portrait of the kind of butch woman I idealized. I would have dated Beebo, no question ..."
(Dorothy Allison)
