perplexing, the nightmares are always the same - a woman calling out for
help, only onlt to die horribly as Julia struggles to reach her.
As
the nightnares become more and more vivid, Julia seeks professional help.
Doctors prescribe pills; therapists theorize about past lives and post-traumatic
stress. But to no avail. In fact, the nightmares just increase with such
intensity that Julia finds herself slipping into the dream state during
the day.
In
desperation she turns to the internet, where she locates a support group
for women with sleep disorders. To her amazement she soon learns that
the other lesbians in the group - and only the lesbians - are having the
same nightmares. No longer believing that these mysterious night visions
are in their heads the women band together to discover what is really
going on.
The
first breakthrough comes when Julia realizes that their visions all began
on the same night. A night unlike any other... |

The
story of Philippa and Aurelie.
Sometime
in the last century, two women living on the coast of France, in Brittany,
loved each other.
They
had no other models of such a thing, so they chose this solution: one
of them posed as a man for most of their life together; they were married,
adopted a child, and were very happy together.
The
one who posed as a man was lost at sea, ad a statue was erected to her,
symbolising all the collective losses suffered by their small town.
Many
years later, when it was known that she had in fact been a woman, the
statue was destroyed by angry and frightened people.
This
legend is still told in Brittany. |

idyll than 'Cold Comfort Farm'. And gradually, Clea is forced to examine

On
the verge of turning forty in 1990, Jesse Austin's three equally plausible
lives are shown in triptych: married, pregnant, living in her home town
of New Jerusalem, Missouri and having an illicit affair with a maverick
skywriter almost half her age; lesbian English professor in New York bringing
her lover back to Missouri on a visit; divorced mother of two, running
a down-and-out swimming academy in Venus Beach, Florida.
Each
is haunted by the moment she can't get back to, the moment hidden behind
the aquamarine, when she lost the gold medal for the hundred-metre freestyle
at the 1968 Olympics to a fatally seductive Australian swimmer named Marty
Finch. |

and Susan live just outside a village in the agricultural Midlands, where
they run a Gift Shop selling country crafts and home-produced comestibles.
One
day in the summer of 1974 a pig escapes in the village and runs loose
in the shop.
This
is the first event in an odd, not to say bizarre, chain which encompasses
birth, death and the joys and anxieties of parenthood; the contentment
of country life and the whiff of the cess-it; the natural and supernatural
in shocking and outrageous forms; sex in the back of a Transit van at
an Inland Waterways Ralley; flying accusations at a Flower Show; a watcher
in the woods; the decline and fall of the village policeman; and useful
information on how to make cheese from goats' milk. |

who sew in the local factory and more importantly of the friendships between
them.
Limited

stereotype of women as victims as they expand their lives and personal
visions through experiences that show them their common ground as well
as their differences.
When

Straddling
the Mason-Dixon Line since before the Civil War is Runnymede. And it seems
that ever since then, most people in the town have been inherently split:
between good and bad, or love and sex, or male and female, or politics
and sobriety.
Nicole
(Nickel) Smith is in such a dilemma herself - here she is, an avowed lesbian,
having an affair that would shock Runnymedeas much as it shocks nickel
herself.
And
her work seems to be going to the dogs, too, when the beloved newspaper
where she is an editor is put up for for sale. thank goodness the weekly
bingo games still go on, though Nickel is a little weary of playing referee
there for the flamboyant Hunsenmeir sisters, Louise and Julia, Nickels
momma, who are now pushing ninety but clawing like cats over handsome
newcomer Ed Tutweiler Walters.
A
parade of townsfolk and kin weave their colourful way through the trails,
tribulations, and ultimate triumphs of our heroines, in this spirited
novel of the South that appears as much to the funny bone as to the heart. |

McKenzie is beginning to question her life's choices. Living alone and
juggling two jobs to pay her mortgage aren't what she would have planned
for herself. And that's exactly the problem. Because she never took charge
of her life, her life took charge of her.
Rather
than finishing her education, she put all her energy into training dogs
and showing horses. After she was dumped by the woman for whom she left
her marriage, Joan just couldn't get into the dating scene.
At
times, she thought, the only things that kept her going were her dog,
her love of the outdoors, and her long-term relationship with her best
friend, Diane.
But
just when she least expects it, not one, but two exciting new women walk

Joan a chance for a brand new start. |

one cold snowy night. Her life had taken a sudden turn when out of the
blue she received a call from her ex after many years asking her to
be the maid of honour at her wedding.
As
all her feelings and emotions came rushing back it was all she could
do to stay calm, she reluctantly said yes when all she wanted to do
was scream NO!
It
was late one evening on a mountain in Colorado when her life was changed,
and not even her past could hurt her now, it was the future she was
more afraid of. The only thing that felt real and right was how wonderful
she felt being with this woman wrapped in her arms making love.
From
a houseboat in key west to a home in the mountains, would the love they
had for one another be strong enough to keep them together through all
that was about to happen? Things seemed to be going good, maybe too
good, until the phone rang...

It
seems that off the court, angel of Wimbledon Alie de Ville is spoiled,
conceited, rude, and-to make matters worse-a thousand times more attractive
and desirable than any of her Sports Illustrated covers can convey.

her bedroom - and shes got her sights set on a new trophey. Rich powerful,
and on her home turf, the professional athlete appears to have the advantage.
But former softball champ Kotter is no stranger to tough competition.

Bethlehem, Indiana is about to collide with San Francisco, California.
Naomi Bittner, returning to her roots in the Midwest, is unhappy that
Ruth Greene, the discarded girlfriend of her daughter, Marina, has insisted
on accompanying her. Both women are mourningMarina. Neither woman understands
why Marina has fled them both.
As
Naomi tries to reconnect the threads of a life she left years ago, hip
young San Franciscan Ruth wends her way cautiously through the intricate
interconnections of small-town life, its assumptions and rigid standards
of behaviour. Slowly, she uncovers secrets and closets.
One
of those closets is occupied by the highly admired town doctor, Belinda
Boaz, Naomi's cousin. An attraction building between them seems to have
a hopeless future: Belinda is a generation removed from Ruth in age,
has a daughter and grandchild, and is deeply entrenched in a town seemingly
unwilling to make room for a lesbian couple.
Then,
suddenly, events careen out of control in the town of New Bethlehem...

Introduction
by Alison Hennegan - Lesbian
Landmarks Series Editor.
In
a small English town, just before the Great War, battle rages over Alwynne
Durand, an appealing but dangerously inexperienced young teacher.
Two women struggle to win her love and loyalty....
Elsbeth,
her fiercly protective aunt, and the formidable Clare
Hartill. A brilliantly charismatic teacher, feverishly adored,
Clare's power is great - her abuse of it is greater. Greedy for love,
but incapable of returning it, she compulsively destroys the affections
of those she most needs...
Clemence
Dane, the pen-name of Winifred Ashton (1888-1965), began
her career as an actress, taught schoolgirls,
sculpted professionally and wrote some
of the most successful novels of the inter-war years. Regiment of
Women was an immediate bestseller on publication in 1917.

Stephanie, |
Work
and love are the heart of this wise, optimistic new novel from Stephanie
Dowrick.
Around
two likeable women - Cordelia and Laurie - circulate noisy, opinionated
friends, children, siblings, most of whom share their fascination with
place, with creativity, with richly varied human relationships, and with
vital, exhilarating questions about 'the taste of freedom' that underpins
everything.
Cordelia
is newly widowed. laurie is the mother of two lively children. Each has
known and lost love. Each is cautious. yet the gift of their deepening
affection, and their willingness to accept the challenge of that, allows
them to find a new appreciation of life, and new meaning in ageing.
From
this passionate and creative friendship, and through its intense, lyrical
converstaions, emerges a work of warmth, insight, and lasting generosity
of spirit.

of Mephistco plc, the endearing dybbuk, Kokos.
The

a lovely land that contains the stately presence of the centuries.
But
her former lover in America is sending mixed signals, and refusing to
let old wounds heal. And when Leslie speaks of her sexual identity to
Joana and Miguel, Miguel's reaction is desturbingly ambiguous. Then Leslie
meets the alluring artist Helena.
Leslie
discovers that the year she lived in Provincetown has strengthened her
acceptance of herself as a lebian. Amid the flashfire of the passion between
herself and Helena, she sees her Portuguese lover and her new gay friends
through altered eyes of her American lesbian sensibility. Finally, and
irrevocably, she must decide between a new lover in her beloved Portugal
and the newly won sexual openness of America's gay community... |

Ruth, |
"In
July 1983, my family gathered for a party to celebrate my sister's
marriage. Coincidently, my grandmother - Sophie Geller - had just celebrated
her 90th birthday. I'd brought along an excerpt from 'Triangles' that
i planned to read to her, thinking she would be pleased and flattered.
I'd
been telling her about the book for years and about the character Rose,
I'd based on her. But it seemed to make little impressions one way or
another. She'd smile and say, 'Dot's nice', as though I'd told her I'd
slept well the night before or was thinking of painting my house. I hoped
that reading from the actual book would make the difference.
Well,
I began to read. At first I thought she understood it and loved it. She
was leaning forward, frowning with anticipation, smiling, nodding. I felt
great. Especially when she laughed in what seemed to be all the right
places. Once I paused and asked, 'Do you understand it, Grandma?' and
she answered 'Oy, it's vonderful!'
As
I continued, however, I sensed that her reactions were not based on what
I was reading, but took their cue from my facial expressions and tone
of voice. Finally, I paused. I gave her a questioning look and asked,
'What do you think, Grandma?'
She
grinned more widely, shaking her head in amazement at how terrific I was
and exclaimed, 'Oy! I think it's vonderful dot you could read vidout glasses!'". |

McAllister is a former 60's radical, a feminist, a divorced mother working
at a routine office job. Her life is ordinary, until...
Suddenly,
she acquires an incredible power- the power to implant into the minds
of others, any idea she chooses...any belief...any value...any need.
How
this changes her world, and affects her relationships with the three very
different women in her life : Judith, Rit and Wiley is the story of Paz. |

a secret and compelling errand.

by mysterious assailants with no apparent motive for wanting the women
dead.

by determined killers armed with automatic weapons, lacerated by cold
and snow, the women battle desperately, their survival depending entirely

Rahven is a cab driver who has a perfect sense of direction in everything
except her own life - she bears the curse of "congenitally bad judgment".
So Cath begins to make lists to help her get her bearings, remind her
of where the dead ends are.
Take
men. Cath sleeps with exactly two kinds: those she doesn't like, and those
she would like 'otherwise'. So - take women. She thinks they're probably
a better bet; trouble is, she isn't even sure what the rule are. It might
have something to do with vegetarian restaurants and poetry readings,
and then again, it might not...
Cath
begins the task of unearthing herself from the safe and familiar but unsatisfying
in her life. And she discovers that she is more loving and more lovable
that she thought possible.
Compassionate
and funny, a demonstration that sometimes when you go searching for a
more meaningful existence, you find one.

closeted, Julia has always limited her encounters with women to secret
trysts and one - or two - night stands.
While

recognised, then sneaks out to a secluded lesbian bar. There she meets
local journalist Cory Hayes, who is celebrating the publication of a hard-won
story.
After
spending a passionate weekend with Julia, Cory is devastated when she

an exquisite face on the cover of a fashion magazine - a face that looks
more than vaguely familiar. Thus begins an all-consuming game of hide-and-seek,
with Julia trying to run from herself and her uncertain future - and Cory
willing to risk everything to find her.

Computer

heart is to ignore Lesbian Dating Rule Number One: Never, ever, get involved
with a straight woman.
Yet,
despite her better judgement, and serious warnings from her friends, she
finds herself battling a growing infatuation with her very straight -
and very attractive - co-worker Sara Stevens.
Haunted
by memories of past rejection, Leslie is understandably hesitant about
coming out to Sara, yet she doesn't want to jeopardize their friendship
by being dishonest about who she is.
When
Leslie finally trusts Sara enough to tell her she's a lesbian, Sara fulfills
Leslie's worst fears and cuts her off. But not for the reason Leslie thinks.
Hurt
and angry with herself, Leslie vows never to trust Sara again, and seeks
solace in the arms of a seductive young golf pro. When Sara sees Leslie
with her new lover, she is forced to confront her own hidden desires.
Then,
a long business trip together turns into an emotional tug-of-war, as Leslie
and Sara struggle to control the raging passions that could bring them
together - or tear them apart.
