Ally Blumenfeld reviews Learning to Kiss Girls by Elizabeth Andre

(a.k.a. Why all queer ladies should read A Room of One’s Own) “For masterpieces are not single and solitary births; they are the outcome of many years of thinking in common, of thinking by the body of the people, so that the experience of the mass is behind the single voice.” So ventures Virginia WoolfRead More
