Has anyone else read this book? I originally put it on my 'wish list' because I thought it would be good research material for my WIP.

I enjoyed reading it. It's a lovely book. Interviews with many nuns. Quite sensitive.

Covers at least back to the 1950's. So a lot of the women joined the convent without any prior knowledge of what a lesbian was. (It was written in the mid-eighties).

I read it back in the late 1980s for a class; there's a cluster of similar books published between 1980 and 2000.
