Whisper Their Love
Author(s): Valerie Taylor
Joyce is 18, a freshman at a fashionable school for girls; suddenly all that matters to her is a woman twice her age. This beautifully written pulp novel was published as a mass market paperback in 1957 and is widely considered a historic milestone for its openly lesbian, feminist content, which shocked many readers at the time. It has been described as an 'anti-romance novel' for its grounding in the reality of lesbian experience.
