de Lillian Faderman

Born in 1940, Faderman was the only child of an uneducated and unmarried immigrant Jewish woman.

Told with wrenching immediacy, this is the nakedly honest story of an exceptional woman. Photos.

Información de la editorial

The daughter of an unmarried immigrant Jewish garment worker whose family had perished in the Holocaust, Lillian Faderman dreamed of being an actress. Instead she worked her way through college by posing for nude photographs, and by stripping. She slowly discovered that her deepest erotic and emotional connections were to women. After nearly losing herself in a dangerous underworld of addicts, pimps, and prostitutes, she became a brilliant student, eventually earning a Ph.D. And she became a loving partner, a devoted mother, an influential writer, and a groundbreaking scholar of gay and lesbian studies.

HOW COULD I NOT have spent years of my life lusting after the golden apple-the heft of it, the round, smooth feel of it, the curve of it in my small hand?
