Helen Eisenbach on "Lesbianism Made Easy"


"This book saved my life!"—Customer on Amazon.com Helen Eisenbach is a novelist (Loonglow), editor, playwright, and contributor to New York Magazine and Newsweek. "She has written a book that is a welcome relief from the plethora of self-help books that take themselves ever- so-seriously. This irreverent look at lesbianism covers such topics as how to know you're a lesbian, finding the woman of your dreams, breaking up, and, yes, choosing a pet" (Library Journal). And another customer on Amazon.com wrote: "It is best to chose wisely when deciding where to read this book. I started in a restaurant, with starched linen tableclothes. I laughed so much that I spat tomato and basil soup over a good proportion of it. "Ms Eisenbach manages to be funny whilst also giving good advice on such difficult subjects as: When to phone a woman after you have had sex with her. Her account of naming a lesbian pet is wonderful but may cause you to have fits of the giggles next time you hear a friend call her dog. "She advised aspirant lesbians to 'lighten up' This is just the book to do it!" Copies of the book will be given away as door prizes. Co-sponsored by SAGA and The Simon H. Rifkind Center.
