'An inspiring celebration of lesbian camaraderie activism and fun' SARAH WATERS 'A must-have for any queer bookshelf' TEGAN QUIN As long as queer women have existed they've gathered in places where they can be themselves. From the intimate darkness of the lesbian bar to the sweaty camaraderie of the sports pitch these spaces aren't a luxury - they're a necessity.

A love letter time capsule and bridge between generations of queer women A Place of Our Own brings the history - and timeless present - of the lesbian community to vivid life. 'Riveting indispensable and suffused with a humane warmth' ALISON BECHDEL 'Her voice - charming irreverent tender - makes the journey through lesbian history so worthwhile' NEW YORK TIMES 'An engaging and informative study that defies attempts to erase people or their places' KIRKUS [If there is space] 'Pulses with delicious dykes and the spaces we have made for ourselves over the years' STELLA DUFFY
