In Her Words: 20th Century Lesbian Fiction (2022)

In Her Words: 20th Century Lesbian Fiction documents the history and impact of lesbian fiction from the1920s through the1990s. Narrator Lillian Faderman recounts the impact key world events had on LGBTQ history throughout the decades. With interviews from numerous trailblazing lesbian authors, including the "Queen of Lesbian Pulp" Ann Bannon, Dorothy Allison, Rita Mae Brown, Sarah Waters and Jewelle Gomez, we learn how these world events helped shape their stories and to what extent the stories were reflections of the authors' own lives as they looked for affirmation and their place in the world.
