Literary Nonfiction. LGBTQIA Studies. Women's Studies. IN SEARCH OF PURE LUST documents an important chapter in lesbian history that is already being distorted and erased, a time when lesbians were reinventing everything from the ground up. This is a long overdue and unvarnished insider's account of those times. The memoir, centered in the Northeast U.S. and then later in Quebec, combines a personal story with the story of a political movement. The book is full of celebration, but also depicts the shadow side of the lesbian movement, taking the reader into the bitter squabbles that divided women, both personally and politically.
