That lesbian relationships can be violent and abusive, rather than the woman-to-woman utopias of feminist myth-making, is a well-kept secret. But how prevalent is violence and coercion in lesbian experience? How do the different kinds of abuse - physical, psychological and sexual - manifest themselves and what are the consequences? Are alcohol and drug misuse, internalised homophobia and childhood abuse causes or symptoms? How can we challenge the myth that violence appears only in S/M or butch-femme relationships? And what should you do if you find yourself in a relationship which is becoming violent or coercive? Lesbians Talk Violent Relationships is the first book on abusive lesbian relationships to be published in the UK. Basing their research on an extensive survey of survivors' own experiences, the authors draw up a picture of how abuse happens and how we might deal with it. Essential reading for professionals working with violence and abuse, lesbians who have for too long ignored the problem - and, of course, for anyone who has survived or is undergoing an abusive relationship.

SHORTLISTED FOR THE T S ELIOT PRIZE 2021 The female body is a political space. C+nto enters the private lives of women from the butch counterculture, telling the inside story of the protests they led in the '90s to reclaim their bodies as their own - their difficult balance between survival and self-expression. History, magic, rebellion, party and sermon vibrate through Joelle Taylor's cantos to uncover these underground communities forged by women. Part-memoir and part-conjecture, Taylor explores sexuality and gender in poetry that is lyrical, expansive, imagistic, epic and intimate. C+nto is a love poem, a riot, a late night, and an honouring.

The Westbourne Press

Inside this book are tales of women who eat themselves, mothers who collect clouds in small bottles, children who live beneath beds, poets who stand on top of tower blocks and girls who find wings and fly accross a landscape of abandoned council estates, the ghosts of gangs spraying graffiti poetry. It is a book about beauty in ugly places.
