It’s time! We’re meeting to discuss Leslie Feinberg’s Stone Butch Blues at 4.30pm BST. It’s a classic which celebrates lesbian bar culture, community, and desire — and I can’t wait to hear what everyone thought. 📖💜

“There’s a keen interest in lesbian ideas, politics, family structures, and so much more. A hunger that drives us to the marrow of every text.” I wrote a @FiLiA_charity blog post about our lesbian book group turning 2! #LesbianVisibilityWeek filia.org.uk/latest-news/20…
