	All Books by Rosa Ainley - Author of : What is She Like? : Lesbian Identities From the 1950s to the 1990s Paperback (March 1999) Cassell Academic; ISBN: 0304329002 "Lesbian Studies; Rosa Ainley looks at how lesbians see themselves, sexually, socially and politically and at the questions of identity that have always defined and divided the lesbian community. From the repressive 1950s, through so-called sexual liberation in the 1960s to the freedoms and limitations of (lesbian) feminism in the 1970s, she brings her own perspectives to bear on lesbian lives in the 1990s, when lipstick lesbians are the sometime darlings of the mainstream media. In a series of interviews interspersed with the text, over 20 women, of varying ages, races and backgrounds, talk frankly about their lives and lifestyles as lesbians, focusing on their own identity in terms of politics, leisure pursuits, fashion and affiliations."

	All Books by Judith Barrington - Author of : An Intimate Wilderness: Lesbian Writers on Sexuality Paperback - 296 pages Reissue edition (December 1991) Eighth Mountain Pr; ISBN: 0933377096 "Lesbian Studies; This poetry and prose anthology speaks of the ebb and flow of lesbian sexuality. Not a how-to manual or an erotica reader, it is a refreshingly honest treatment of a complex subject. Taken together, these pieces examine women's efforts to define sexuality on their own terms, how intimacy influences other aspects of their lives and vice versa. Contributors represent a cross-section of cultures. Many talk about the difficulties connected with feeling or acting on desires with other women in a world openly hostile to them. The trauma of incest on relationships surfaces in a few pieces, as in Maureen Seaton's "The Bed." The material (a good share reprinted and some original) ranges from the analytical to the introspective, the serious to the comic, the political to the personal."
