Archive

[LGBTQ] Lesbian Voices: Feminist Lesbian Quarterly Magazine. Archive of 2 Magazines. San Jose: Jonnik Enterprises, 1975-80. Illustrated pictorial wrappers. Each magazine measures 6.75" x 8.5", and are around 40 pages total. This small archive includes: Vol. 1, Iss. 4 (1975), and Vol. 3, No. 4 (1980). Lesbian Voices was published quarterly beginning in 1974, with the purpose of amplifying lesbian voices in a "dignified format" with a "constructive sense of life, in keeping with [their] belief that lesbianism can be and should be good, wholesome, fulfilling, and joyful". Within each magazine are various poems, prose, stories, and book reviews of lesbian authors. In a metaphorical poem entitled "Sappho Was Not Closet", author Julie Simmons asserts that "Amazons cannot hide in closets/because/because/because it is unnatural". An incisive look into lesbian-feminism through poetry and prose, this archive is important and in very good condition.
