"This is one of my absolute favorite books! Women authors who were, and still are, bright lights of literature and poetry. Many of these women are lesbian or bisexual, and as "out" as the times would allow. They supported one another as authors, and often as "sex variants" as well. A look at women's history and LBGT history, too."
"really got me in the mood for more scholarly books, analyzing and critiquing works and the history of women of the left bank. i wasn't able to finish it because Iowa City's library system sucks and only allows you one renewal--trust me, it's a great book and requires a lot of time and effort in it's reading. These were important women of the day who've gotten overlooked and had been desiring to create my own salon (and to be more well-read and go get a masters in english)."
