A striking lesbian mainfesto and a deft parody."Library JournalBlending fiction, myth, and revisionary parody and accompanied by the author's delightful illustrations, Ladies Almanac is also a brilliant modernist composition and arguably the most audacious lesbian text of its time. While the book pokes fun at the wealthy expatriates who were Barnes' literary contemporaries and remains controversial today, it seems to have delighted its cast of characters, which was also the first audience. Barney herself subsidized its private publication in 1928. Fifty of the 1050 copies of the first edition were hand colored by the author, who was identified only as a lady of Fashion: on the title page.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 229mmItem Length: 152mmItem Weight: 204gAuthor: Djuna BarnesGenre: FictionBook Series: Cutting Edge: Lesbian Life and Literature SeriesRelease Year: 1992 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
