the infinite compassion and desire of a femme for a butch, for all the people found in solidarity with… a love letter to resistance, lust and eroticism as power. a story that makes me proud to be a femme almost 30 years after it’s publication. i hope the butches + femmes that read this are reminded of the core of this struggle and remember the book’s ending sentiment: “We are the obscure stones at whose shift the walls will crack from bottom to top, dirt to wind, so that all can be built again for all. If the lowest stones move, those who scrape and sell even the sky will crash down in a scatter of glittering rock.”
