Bravo les lesbiennes !

Une importante anthologie pour celleux qui aiment les jardins, qui rêvent d’une ferme écologique, qui souhaitent mêler amour, politique et jardinage.

what a lovely book. it made me feel so, so warm. i also really enjoyed reading about each contributor's experiences. i think my favorite pieces were "in the life", "tomatoes", "cactus woman", "the garden paths of a brooklyn kid", "out on a limb with pennie rose", "gaining ground", "the persistence of roots/a profusion of freesia", "you love your roses (more than you love me)", "peas", and "my corn". cannot express how happy this one made me. i love being a lesbian <3

This is a great collection of personal stories by lesbians living in the city and in rural locations.
