Product Description
The Guardian, London 24th July 1999
[An] enchanting memoir... The lives of 'ordinary people' usually make excruciatingly dull reading but this one is a treat: it was transcribed from tape and the editors have wisely let Barbara's charming, anecdotal style shine through. Her many love affairs are recalled with surprising frankness and glee. Who knew that men in post-war London got up to such queer things with Lyons cream buns?

DIVA Magazine, July 1999
The freedoms enjoyed by lesbians today, and the evolution of an open lesbian culture and social scene, are an evident source of delight to Barbara Bell, who still clearly remembers when it was virtually impossible to get your hands on a single lesbian book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant evocation of lesbian life this century, 18 Sep 1999
By A Customer
Born in the north of England at the beginning of the Great War, Barbara Bell charts her life as a lively loving lesbian through the police force, teaching, the emerging lesbian organisations of the sixties, buddying people with AIDS and retirement in Brighton in the late nineties. Her stories are sometimes sad, sometimes hilarious but always engrossing. Extensively illustrated with photographs from her personal albums.
