Lesbian Books

In my time as a bookseller, I have been keeping track of the lesbian books that I encounter, especially ones from small lesbian presses. Here is a partial list of them that I will attempt to keep udpated. I will also include links with further information and to archive.org scans of the books when they exist. Right now I am restricting this list to books that I have personally found and handled, but if you have additional information to add you may contact me at madden.aleia (at) gmail.com

You can also see more information about my bookstore, Bookends in Florence, at this link

Hopefully I will be able to make a list of subpages with more information about each of the presses as I find out more.

Books from Lesbian Presses

Lesbian Bedtime Stories, ed. Terry Woodrow, Tough Dove Press 1989.

This book was given to me by a lesbian elder in my community, who had a partner write a story for it but would not tell me who. It features the greatest book cover I've ever seen, which I will post a picture of at some point, and was nominated at the 2nd ever Lambda Literary awards.
