Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Clearly, if Showtime can create an entire series dedicated to dyke drama (The L Word), it's way past time for it to receive the respect it deserves-and has been demanding for years. Dyke drama scholars Terri Fabris and Angela Brown have created a complete guide to this cultural institution, passed down nobly from Sappho to Gertrude Stein to Melissa Etheridge to Amlie Mauresmo. Fabris and Brown chart the evolution of dyke drama as it passes from dating right on down through breakups and into lesbian incest (dating your ex's ex's ex). Also included: Dating Drama, Drunk Drama, Workplace Drama, Academia Drama, Lesbian Illness Drama and Therapy Drama.

Terri Fabris is an Alyson editor.

Angela Brown is Alyson's editor in chief. She's Terri's boss. Drama.

Synopsis:

Dyke drama scholar Leslie Lange presents a hilarious history of this cultural institution, passed nobly down from Sappho to Ellen Degeneres, and gives valuable coping and survival tips for all types of situations: how to avoid a barroom altercation with a bat-wielding softball player, how to tell if you're a dangerous lesbian stalker, the truth about lesbian bed death, pillow princesses, pet custody drama, and more. Any lesbian having more than her fair share of drama lately will appreciate the comic relief mixed with practical advice approach of this laugh-a-page self-help book. Includes true testimonials of the worst dyke drama imaginable.

About the Author

Leslie Lange toiled as a donut decorator, a parade clown, and a Las Vegas chorus girl before entering a succession of Ph.D. programs in anthropology, sociology, and finally queer studies. With all the dyke drama she's encountered, she wishes she were a licensed therapist.
