	ALLISON & CARLIN.	BEYOND THE LIMITS.	Warner	£3.95
	Stacy & Peter,	A Woman's Triumph on Everest. In 1988 Stacy Allison became the first American woman ever to reach the summit of Everest. Beyond the limits describes, in her own words, the long road to this triumphant moment, relating in the process her struggle to be accepted in mountaineering circles, her exhausting conquest of the world's highest peak, and vividly re-creating what it feels like to cling to the side of a mountain-face by your fingertips. But this rare insight into the idiosyncratic world of the climbing elite is only half of Stacy's story. Abused by her husband, she had tp draw on the same reserves of courage and detrmination that enabled her to climb Everest in order to face the sham of her marriage, and walk out on the man who no longer deserved her love. For anyone who has faced an impossible mountain - whether physical or metaphorical - and reached for its summit, Beyond the Limits thrillingly shows that it can be done.

The 'code of honor' among the men of her Berber village was often violently enforced, so the young mother walked six days to entrust her daughter to the care of French nuns. Fadhma married at 16, and moved first to Tunis and eventually to Paris, where her two surviving children settles. There she was to become famous as a singer of the wild and plaintive songs of her beloved Kabylia. My Life Story was completed in 1962 when the author was eighty years old.

But over all lies the brooding presence of the 'whitefolks' who rule from the other side of town. A visit to St Louis and their adored mother ends in tragedy: Maya is raped by her mother's lover. For years afterwards she refuses to speak, except to Bailey. And in those years she learnt that 'it was awful to be a Negro' ...brutal to be young and already trained to sit quitely and listen to charges brought against my color'.

	Sally,	One Woman’s Fight to Rescue Children in Bosnia. Sally Becker's successful attempts to evacuate the sick and injured, Croat and Muslim alike, from the horrors of war in Bosnia are now famous. Shocked by the pictures of suffering she saw in the news and determined to do something about it, Sally set off for Bosnia hoping to help disturbed shell shocked children through art therapy. She soon realised that there were many children who needed more than just therapy, wounded children who might die unless given immediate medical attention outside of the war zone. She began to organise her own evacuations of sick and wounded women and children. There are many children alive today to testify to her courage and determination, causing the press to name her 'The Angel of Mostar'. Yet despite the danger and hardship that she and the volunteers who helped her endured, her efforts have generated a surprising amount of criticism from the UN and from other major aid agencies. Her robust reply of 'If they can do it without Sally Becker, that's fine. But why don't they bloody well do it?' is typical of a woman who has acted while others merely talked. This is her story. Moving and simply told, it describes the long nightmare of a country torn apart by war, and one person's attempt to make a difference.	Good / V Good 1994 Hardback.   ISBN: 0-09-178927-3
	BELL.	JUST TAKE YOUR FROCK OFF.	Ourstory	£4.25
	Barbara,	A Lesbian Life. The daughter of a mill worker in Lancashire, Barbara Bell had her lesbian 'initiation' the year after Radcliffe Hall's 'The Well of Loneliness' (1928). Since then, she has never had the time to be lonely. Her uncle Jack was the first in a long line of gay men who befriended her - one workmate even taught her about French kissing in the lunchbreaks. But always Barbara was on the lookout for women like herself. She found them in Girl Guide camps, Paris clubs, Park Lane tea rooms, Hitler's Germany, London in the blitz, a Watford approved school and a Nigerian village. She had two lesbian 'marriages' but also illicit and delicious 'flutters'. She was a butch in tailored suits and femme in crocheted lace. In a silent world she learned to be discreet but she never turned her back on love. Living in Brighton in the early sixties, Barbara zoomed round the countryside in a sportscar, counselling heartbroken lesbians. Gay liberation ushered in a world of more freedom than she could ever have imagined when she was young. In her seventies she started 'buddying' men and women with AIDS and wore a red hat to their funerals. Familiar to viewers of BBC2's 'It's Not Unusual', Barbara Bell here talls the full story of her extraordinary life and times. Lesbian Biography, Lesbian History, Women's Studies.

	BERNHARD.	CONFESSIONS of a PRETTY LADY.	Flamingo	£3.25
	Sandra,	Welcome to the extraordinary world of Sandra Bernhard. Sophisticated, sardonic and witty, nothing escapes her acute eye and sharp tongue. With the pitch-perfect sense of style and humour, Bernhard has written a brilliant memoir of growing up, describing the thrill of emerency vehicles, why she moved back to suburbia, a traumatic abortion, dreams of Madonna, family car trips through the midwest, the art of manicures and her experiences of Jews who celebrate Christmas. Confessions of a pretty woman captures perfectly the strong and subversive humour that is well known to those who are familiar with Sandra's film and TV appearances and recent one-woman show, 'Without You I'm Nothing'. Her unique blend of caustic wit and fragile irony proves her to be as compulsively readable on paper as she is dazzlingly charismatic on stage.	Fair / Good 1993   ISBN: 0-586-21782-7
	BIELENBERG.	THE ROAD AHEAD.	Corgi	£3.00
	Christabel,	Sequel to 'The Past is Myself': Biography of her life up to the 1960's. Following the extraordinary success of her wartime memoirs, 'The Past is Myself', Christabel Bielenberg received thousands of letters from readers begging her to describe what happened next. The Road Ahead takes up the story at the moment the first volume left off - with the outbreak of peace. Germany was devastated by war and its aftermath, while Britain seemed grey and exhausted to Christabel. She was soon appointed the Observer's special correspondent in Germany, and, reunited with her husband, Peter (techincally an enemy alien), she joined the struggle for reconciliation with, and the rebuilding of, a defeated nation. It was Peter's near-fatal accident and her own illness which decided the young couple to turn their backs on England and Germany and make a new start farming in Ireland. Life was harsh at first, but predictably Christabel found humour in the accidents of poverty and the many mishaps of country life. The beautiful scenery of the Wicklow Mountains provided a haven for the family and for the hosts of young people from all over the world who joined them each summer. Christabel became involved with the Peace Women of Northern Ireland and learned as much as hse could about the adopted country she had grown to love so passionately. Taking her seventieth birthday as a stopping point for a life that even now, some fourteen years further on, is as rich and full as it ever was, she looks back with characteristic modesty and gratitude. Her readers will be enchanted by this second volume of memoirs, as clear-sighted and generous, as honest, funny, touching and brave as The Past is Myself.	Good / V Good 1993     ISBN: 0-552-99469-3

	BOWERS.	GERTRUDE STEIN.	Macmillan	£4.50
	Jane Palatini,	Women Writers Series. Until recently Getrude Stein was best known as an eccentric collector of modern art, as a hostess - with Alice B Toklas - of a world famous Parisian literary salon, and only incidently as a writer of enigmatic poetry and prose, most of it unread, much of it out of print. In her engaging account of Stein's work, Jane Palatini Bowers elucidates some of Steins most difficult texts and enables readers to re-evaluate Steins position in the modernist canon. Steins deconstruction of genre, language systems and literary conventions made her marginalization by modern critics and scholars. The world of literary criticsim has only recently caught up with Getrude Stein's literary practice. Recent critical theories (feminist and post-structuralist) have facilitated a reassessment of Stein's work and a recognition of her centrality in modernist and postmoderninst literary history. Informed by post-structuralist theory, but refreshingly jargon-free, Bowers's study will guide readers as they negotiate the difficulties and enjoy the pleasures of Gertrude Stein's writing.

But as it became apparant that, even in liberal San Francisco, there were powerful forces ranged against her fight for recognition. Burke's perception of her lesbian identity was tested as never before. Previously suspicious of the militancy of gay activist groups like Queer Nation, Burke now found herself increasingly drawn to their proactive stance as her entry into motherhood and love for her son sparked a growing radicalisation.

	BURN.	THE CALLING OF KATH BURN.	Angel	£3.50
	Kath,	Autobiography of the female "pilgrim" and "priest". What makes a woman want to be a priest? Where is her calling coming from? This is the utterly honest account of one woman's pilgrimage from Whitley Bay in the north of England to Pakistan, Ireland, the United States and Canada. Kath discovered that to fulfil her calling, she had to be on the move. Coming from a traditional Anglo-Catholic parish, she learned that God wanted her to serve him in the Church. She tested this calling as a missionary, a member of a religious order and finally realised that her role was a more active one - as a priest. After an attempt to be accepted for ordination in Britain, she enrolled as a student of theology in the United States and was ordained there. Everyone who is for or against the ordination of women to the priesthood should open their minds and hearts to the challenge that Kath's calling poses. The revd Kath Burns has been a rector of American and Canadian parishes, and is currently serving as priest at St Mark's church in Cleveland, Ohio.	Fair / Good 1988 ISBN: 0-947785-21-3

	CHAMBERLAIN.	29 INMAN ROAD.	Virago	£3.50
	Ena,	This lyrical, poignant autobiography, in the classic tradition of Cider with Rosie and Lark Rise to Candleford, belongs to the 1920s, to a street in south-west London, to its people - and especially to Ena Chamberlain, the family 'afterthought'. Energetically and vividly she observes and interprets the complex nuances of family relationships and describes the carnival delights of the street - frequently retreating from them to the wonderfully sacrosanct world of her own imagination. A celebration of the women who dominate street society; shape it or perish by it. It is also a story about Ena’s adored father who is the catalyst for the end of the story - and the end of childhood.

The minutiae of life in war-time France interweave with half a century of recollections or remarkable people as the authour moves effortlessly within the paradox of being trapped by disease and the Occupation, and being free to travel wherever she will through her writing, her imagination and her exuberant love of a beneficient world.

	D'ARCY.	TELL THEM EVERYTHING.	Pluto	£2.50
	Margaretta,	The women in Armagh said to me 'tell them everything' and this i have tried to do. This is the story of a sentence served in the bizarre and controversial jail environment that has resulted from the British government's new policy (1976) of 'criminalising' political prisoners in Northern Ireland. The author preferred to spend three months in Armagh jail with 30 young republican women on the no-wash protest rather than pay a fine for protesting (on international women's day 1979) against the inhuman and squalid conditions in the prison - she describes vividly but with humour how the women organised themselves with courage and dignity despite living amid excrement, urine and menstrual blood for 23 hours a day. She poses a crucial question for the women's movement - can it remain silent in the face of the sufferings and resistence of the republican women prisoners in Ireland? A woman who spent 3 months in an Armagh jail.	Fair / Good 1981   ISBN: 0-86104-349-9
