oOo!
I just watched a bio doc of Marlene Dietrich which was great except for one glaring omission; not a single word about her affairs with women!
I am definitely checking out "The Girls" it sounds too good!

I actually found a bargain on that book, own it... now I need to find the time to start reading it. I'm really excited to 'cos I love literary history on lesbians. Although, I have heard criticism online that Faderman relies more on the fictional history rather than the cultural or the actual physical history of the times. *shrug* _________________ “It would be a pity of lesbians and gay men retreated into the same kind of cultural separatism.
