Interview with Ann Bannon
At Clean Sheets, William Dean interviews writer Ann Bannon, who published six lesbian pulp novels between 1957 and 1963. "As for the tenor of the times, there really was a lot of tension between the 'nice girls' in the ruffled aprons, at home making babies and tuna casseroles, and the uncontrollable, adventurous, curious, and sometimes naughty girls out there looking for jobs, looking for fun, looking for a life, and looking, sometimes, for each other." Dean also reviews two Bannon titles. Cleis Press has recently reissued several of Bannon's books with glorious retro-pulp covers. Ann Bannon's website displays the original paperback covers as well.
