reviewed Prophet of Love: And Other Tales of Power and Deceit on August 12, 2015 Prophet of Love: And Other Tales of Power and Deceit
Written in the Reagan & feminist sex wars era, this collection of essays is an essential piece of queer, feminist, femme, and butch/femme history & lineage. Included here are stories of working class 50s dyke bar culture, early involvement in Movement work including the march from Selma to Montgomery, tracings of the relationships between Joan Nestle's femmeness & her mother who liked to fuck, an explicit but brief history of how lesbians & sex workers have always shared community & struggle, and coalition/solidarity politics between lesbian feminism's most hated women: sex workers--butch/femme dykes--leatherwomen, aaand a fair few erotica stories including a femme4femme one that I especially appreciated as a longtime butch/femme femme who's constantly deepening her femme4femme love & life.
