| Summary |
Designated the "Queen of Lesbian Pulp" for her landmark novels of the 1950s and 1960s, Ann Bannon's work defined lesbian fiction for the pre-Stonewall generation. With Beebo Brinker, Bannon introduces the character who made her famous: a butch 17-year-old farm girl newly arrived in Beat-era Greenwich Village after being kicked out of her Wisconsin home town for wearing drag to the State Fair. Here Beebo finds "love that smolders in the shadows of the twilight world," falling for a glamour girl among the Bohemian set. |
