I’ve put off reading Stone Butch Blues for a few years, knowing it would absolutely destroy me! The narrators feelings of pain and isolation stayed with me even when I wasn’t reading, I felt like I was inside the book even after I’d put it down. I doubt there will be a book that has an impact as deep as Leslie’s Stone Butch Blues has had.

Casts a curious glance at the prisms of gender and sexuality, how they intertwine and separate. Also deals with praxis in regards to labor politics in a way that related queer memoir(ish) works often neglect to.
