Strength, Humor, and Honesty

This is simply a marvelous collection. I was very moved by the raw honesty of these coming out stories . . . their courage, their strength, their wonderful moments of humor, as well. Perhaps it has been argued that one coming out story is much like another -- and indeed, there are numerous moments of affirming and empowering commonality that run like a bright connective thread throughout these pieces -- but what is truly amazing about this collection is the range, variety, resonance, and undeniable uniqueness of each of these womyn's voices. This is a terrific book . . . don't miss out on it.
