Summary: First well written lesbian novel I read that wasn't tragic
Review: I loved this book. It is a well written lesbian novel that is not a coming out story, is not a mystery, is not a tragedy, is not brain candy, and is a compelling read. Such books are hard to find. I loved the way it dealt with various lesbian relationships from lover to partner to friend. Be warned though, some of my friends had a hard time getting into it. In the first section you only hear one voice - the narrater's voice. It is like listening to one side of a telephone conversation. I obviously liked it, but others have not. That said, I must restate that I loved this book. I highly recommend it. It's a great read.

Summary: Leave a light on for Me
Review: This is 2004, i realize the book was written 18 yr ago.I'm 46.
I found the book astounding; yet quite angry,apologetic and explanatory. What was your intentsion at THAT time? Times HAVE changed since then; unfortunately, in my opinion, not near enough.Was the book meant ONLY for the lesbian community at that time?Was there any intention, at that time,to reach the straight community in any way? We live, love, and die like everyone else, BUT with a social, religous, etc... stigma.I've stood tall; with kisses, or slaps,on my face, since I was 20.
I will search out more of JS readings, and wish Gentle Breezes to her and all her family,friends and this board.THX Tammy
