Lesbian Peoples: Material for a Dictionary

Lesbian Peoples: Material for a Dictionary is an archive, an epic, and a utopian manifesto that redefines language, history, mythology, and desire through an Amazonian perspective. Monique Wittig and Sande Zeig are architects of a tantalizing future shaped by lesbian sensation and imagination, intertwining the personal and political using alphabetically-arranged dictionary entries. Filled with humor, satire, and wordplay, every entry ensorcells, turning familiar ideas upside down and inside out. Bold, visionary, and blissfully original, Lesbian Peoples remains a singular work of materialist feminist and lesbian literature.

Now with a foreword by Alexis Pauline Gumbs.
