Description

A wild roller coaster ride through the history of queer women

Whether well-known names such as Virginia Woolf, Marlene Dietrich and Hildegard von Bingen or previously (unjustly) unknown ones such as that of the Andalusian princess Wallāda bint al-Mustakfī, the womanizer:in Catterina Vizzani, the Chinese intellectual Wu Zao or the trans* activist Marsha P. Johnson, who was involved in the Stonewall uprising: Kirsty Loehr gathers her and many other queer women in her extraordinary book of feminist historiography. After reading, we see the world with new eyes in its heteronormative corset with new eyes, which has been tight for centuries. Funny and cheeky in tone, Kirsty Loehr stretches a critical arc from the Stone Age to the present day - and opens up an incredible panorama of queer women who absolutely must be discovered.

"Rasant, entertaining and wonderfully suggestive." Kate Lister, author of "Sex - The Whole Story"

"Heart-rooving and hilarious and full of love. A truly witty direct hit of queer story - it can be read as if you were revealing a secret. It's shocking, romantic, angry, and all this screams from the sides with the need to finally be heard." Connie Glyn
