"Winner of the 2013 Prism Comics Queer Press Grant! 'If This Be Sin' is a collection of comics about queer women expressing themselves through music. It tells the stories of Gladys Bentley, the Harlem Renaissance blues singer and drag king, and Wendy and Lisa, the lesbian rockstars of Prince and the Revolution. "Hazel Newlevant draws like a dream and weaves a mesmerizing story. 'If This Be Sin' is a stunning achievement." -Alison Bechdel, author of 'Fun Home' "The stories are super sweet and hopeful, but also have a touching gloominess to them. I loved it!" -Ross Campbell, author of 'Wet Moon' 8.25" x 11", 44 pages, perfect-bound, full color throughout."--Google Books description, website viewed April 5, 2019.

There are three stories: one about Gladys Bentley, blues singer from the Harlem Renaissance, one about a dance competition, and one about the strife between Prince and Wendy and Lisa — a lesbian couple who co-wrote and performed a number of his early songs.
This absolute gem of a book was a lucky find via Tumblr when pre-order publicity panels were posted. I'm normally more cautious about pre-ordering books, especially from new-to-me authors or new-to-me publishers, but the Tumblr post came at the time I was re-reading Vested Interests by Marjorie Garber, so I was in the right mood to read a graphic novel that covered the same topic (and in the case of Glady Bentley, the same person).
I tore through my copy the day it arrived. It's short, intense, and beautifully drawn. ( )
