I think this book was both wildly ahead of it's time and also, very much of its time. I cant believe it came out in the 70's! The plot was interesting and there was a lot of somewhat radical and unapologetic ideas in there, but the anti-butch commentary was disappointing. A worthwhile read especially since it's one of the first western lesbian novels!
