City Lights, Country Candles

No one breathes life into our lesbian history like the incomparable Penny Hayes. Laurie has left her hectic life in Cleveland for a welcome vacation at her best friend Eveleen's beautiful home. Each evening, Eveleen's 102 year old great-great grandmother insists on telling Laurie about the women she has known in her lifetime. Women like Honora...the beautiful spouse of a distinguished army officer. Louisa...the faithful wife of a fundamentalist minister. Helena...the budding young artist from a prominent family. Sam...the runaway farm gift who passed as a man. Each night, Grandma weaves her captivating tales of these extraordinary women -- women who, despite their differences, were condemned to the same horrible fate because of who they were. And all the while, Eveleen is waiting patiently, frightened that Laurie will not understand what Grandma is trying to tell her -- and terrified that she will!Hayes, Penny is the author of 'City Lights, Country Candles' with ISBN 9781931513807 and ISBN 1931513805.
