About This Book
"Rarer than hen’s teeth—lesbian humor." ~ Marion Zimmer Bradley
"A collection of six stories over which, says the author, he got into trouble ""with educators, middle Western matrons, a celebrated female philanthropist, upper New York squireens and literary busybodies."" The first fiction in book form from Thomas Beer for five years, but those who met Mrs. Egg and old Van Eck in 1927 will be glad to have them in permanent form. Highly stylized, essentially for the sophisticates, entertaining and wholly original. Don't sell to your conservative readers, but rather to your Huxley followers." ~ Kirkus
