The Princess of Pain

Picture

The story of a woman's quest to accept what cannot be accepted. Beautifully illustrated by Sudie Rakusin.

"In The Princess of Pain, Gage once again lures us past our threshold of comfort as we journey through the interior landscape of a woman suffering with irremediable pain. Under the magic of Gage’s crystalline prose and Sudie Rakusin’s resonant
illustrations, any residue impulses to blame or otherwise distance ourselves from human suffering are exposed as base and cruel when set beside Princess’ heroic, clear-eyed refusal of false palliatives."--Patricia Morgne Cramer, co-editor Virginia Woolf: Lesbian Readings

Sermons for a Hot Kitchen from the Lesbian Tent Revival

Picture
The fourth volume of sermons from the fierce and hilarious Lesbian Tent Revival. "Sister Carolyn" delivers her fiery messages on a range of subjects, from prostitution to jealousy, dying well to holding contradiction.  Sixteen of her latest sermons.

"It’s no surprise that Sermons for a Hot Kitchen is about stirring the pot and asking us to engage with difficult, but constructive questions and exploring issues that aren’t always easy or acceptable. We’re challenged to stretch beyond our comfort zone to consider things in a new way.... It also helps that our guide provides us with encouragement and humor to help us along the way. Not only is Sister Carolyn perceptive and resourceful; she is hopeful which is a very energizing force." -- Rain and Thunder: A Radical Feminist Journal of Discussion and Activism
