Jefferson is the lover every woman wants to be--or to have. Magnetically attractive, athletic, alcoholic, Jefferson is an anchorless innocent wandering through a world of women who can resist her no more than she can resist them. Never lacking a lover, Jefferson knows little of love; brought up on the right side of the tracks, she's drawn to the wild side. Every lesbian has known Jefferson--or is Jefferson. Not since The Well of Loneliness has there been a lesbian novel of this scope. But much has changed since then... Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

It's the story of Jefferson. We first meet her when she's a very little kid and then we get to go along on her life. Through all the ups and downs (And a few slightly sideways trips). A lot of it took place in the New York, and some of it in New Hampshire. I'm not sure if it's because I'm more in touch with a New England than a New York City sorta life, but, I liked that part of the book just a little bit more.
Like Portrait of a Lady it took me quite a while to get into the flow of this book. What can I say, I read many many more plot driven fiction novels than I do character driven ones, and this was definitely character driven. Some of that I liked, some of it I didn't. I think my favorite two characters were Gladys and Lily Ann, but I also wound up liking most of the characters in New Hampshire as well. I also liked how I could tell what point in time it was by the narrative. No specific dates needed.
For those looking for a quick read this isn't it. But for someone looking for an in depth interesting character study, this book is the ticket. ( )
