Book Description
Novel Approaches to Lesbian History tells a tale about history and community in our allegedly post-identity era, examining contemporary novels that depict lesbian characters in recognizable historical situations. These imaginative stories provide a politically vital, speculative past in the face of a sketchy, problematic archive. Among the memorable characters in some 200 novels are pirates, cowgirls, and famous artists, ghosts and time travellers, immigrants and lovers. The best lesbian historical novels are conscientious and buoyant as they engage critical historiographical questions, but Novel Approaches also discusses the class and race biases that weigh on the genre. Some lesbian historical novels are based on archival evidence, others on conjecture or fantasy, but all convey the true fact that identity is elusive without a past, without which its future is nearly impossible.

Book Description
Since assuming her late husband's congressional seat, Glynn Wright has led a quiet life of devoted service and motherhood, earning a reputation as a dependable soldier in her party. When her sixteen-year-old son Sebby tries to take his own life, Glynn is prepared to sacrifice everything to save him—including the revelation of her past relationships with women, a move that would likely mean the end of her political career and estrangement from her family. One by one, Sebby's secrets spill with devastating consequences for Glynn. Even Charlotte, Sebby's psychiatrist, suffers from the fallout as her faith in Glynn—and the growing attraction they can't resist—puts her at odds with her profession. Together, they search for the only thing that can save them—the truth about Glynn's husband's tragic death. Family and courage have never meant as much as in Secrets So Deep, this gripping romantic story from KG MacGregor (Out of Love, Mulligan), whose entertaining novels examine the complexities of the human heart, and beyond.
