Table of ContentsReviewsPretty maudlin and extravagant autobiography of a Lesbian, which alienates the reader by the lack of that restraint which made The Well of Loneliness a moving and genuine book. There are some pretty squishy love passages, with a cheapness of interpretation which belies their validity. The story traces the dawning suspicion that she is not like other women; she goes into her affair with Carl, a six-months' test of the possibility of normal heterosexual relations, and she proves to herself that she cannot attain physical satisfaction with a man. Then comes - in full detail - the account of the two big affairs of her life, first with a contemporary, then with a younger woman, who turns out to be her life mate. One wonders how this book will pass censorship. (Kirkus Reviews) Author InformationDiana Frederics (Author) Diana Frederics is the pseudonym for Frances V. Rummell.
