ArtemisSmith's ODD GIRL Revisited

Book Description
EXCERPT FROM A REVIEW by Mel Keegan of GLBT Bookshelf ODD GIRL REVISITED is a work of 'rare scholarship'-- so much so that it's not the "easy read" the mass market is looking for these days. It's a window on a world which is gone, and the savvy reader's brows will be popping up in many places, for many reasons ... as much an invaluable glimpse into its times as into the lives and hearts of gay/Gay girls who grew up in the decades before most of us were born.) The strength of the book is in its "realness." And I know that's not a word; but it's what I want to say. The people, places and events in this book are real. Fantastic as it seems (and the first 20pp, the backstory of the author's childhood, do seem more in keeping with a big-budget HBO Movie of the Week!) these events took place. As the Chinese curse goes, "May you live in interesting times." ... Recommended for the well-read; for the reader who isn't using the encyclopedia to prop up the DVD stand; for the writer researching the period'-- with or without any interest in gay culture of the twentieth century. Ideally suited to the American social and cultural studies, and of great interest as a window on the recent past. Also should catch the attention of executives at HBO, who might easily be captivated with the first 20pp, buy the movie rights and never even read the rest of the book! (One can see it now, starring Meryl Streep, Cate Blanchett, Sam Neill and Viggo Mortensen...) --BookWorld.editme.com GLBT Bookshelf, December 6, 2010 Artemis Smith is a prominent strategist of the 1950-60's Rainbow civil rights coalition movements, author of the pulp fiction best sellers 'Odd Girl, ' 'The Third Sex.' and 'This Bed We Made.' This unexpurgated original version is an indispensable addition to every Women's Studies, GLBT and 20th Century literary archive. The Author is an established professional Philosopher, Poet, Artist and Futurist. 'Odd Girl' originally titled 'Anne Loves Beth' has been cited since 1959 by nearly all the name reviewers of the genre and is a recognized classic in sustained demand by modern researchers.

Women's Barracks
Author: Tereska Torres
Publisher: She Winked Press
ISBN: 1936456141
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 302
Book Description
First Digital Edition; Grier Rating: A*** This is the true-life story of what happens when scores of young girls live intimately together in a French military barracks. Many of these girls, utterly innocent and inexperienced, meet other women who have lived every type of existence. Their problems, their temptations, their fights and failures are those faced by all women who are forced to live together during dangerous and stressful times. The girls who chose Tereska Torres, the author, as their confidante poured out to her their most intimate feelings, their secret thoughts. With all of its revelations and tenderness, Women’s Barracks is an important book because it tells a story that had never been truly told before--the story of women in war. It also has the special distinction of being the first “lesbian pulp” novel ever published and became a record-breaking bestseller. This autobiographical novel takes place in London, England during World War II. The terror of the V-1 and V-2 rocket bombings, and the resulting fires and destruction, are an unknown experience to most readers. The women enduring these events were not even 20 years old when they first arrived. Many volunteered to be there. They were French, or of French heritage, and wanted to be part of the effort to help protect France from invasion by the Nazis. Throughout it all, passions flare, long-standing taboos are tossed to the wind, and passionate relationships are begun between older, more experienced butch officers and the young, inexperienced femme girls under their charge. In her telling of these women’s stories, Torres remains nonjudgmental of the lesbian relationships these women explored. Perhaps as a result, Women’s Barracks was banned in several states for being obscene. The House Select Committee on Current Pornographic Materials denounced the book in 1952 as an illustration of how the newly emerging paperback industry was breeding and promoting moral depravity. By today’s standards, of course, the book is somewhat tame; however, the eroticism and honesty with which Torres writes immerses the reader in the love, tenderness, loyalty and passion that women share with each other.

Grandma, in a gut-wrenching introspective 'thought experiment' turns both Cosmology and Human History on its head in Swiftian fashion to provide a new Atheology compatible with the Unified Information Sciences. The Appendix reprints ArtemisSmith's entire 1989 trend-setting science fiction epic: "SKEETS: the new Frankenstein chronicles" in renewed and enhanced illuminated calligraphic splendor.
