Book Appreciation with K. Aten
The Lesbian Historic Motif Podcast - Episode 71
In the Book Appreciation segments, our featured authors (or your host) will talk about one or more favorite books with queer female characters in a historic setting.
In this episode Kelly Aten recommends some favorite queer historical novels:
Books mentioned
- Other Girls by Diane Ayres
- Alma Mater by Rita Mae Brown
- Cinder and the Smoke by Geonn Cannon [Note: in discussing the book, there is an assertion that having a female Pinkerton agent in the 19th century made the story non-historic, but see for example Pinkerton agent Kate Warne one of the first women hired by Pinkerton in the 1850s]
- Storm by Kim Pritekel
- Cobb Island by Blayne Cooper
- Balance of Forces: Toujours ici by Ali Vali
- When Women Were Warriors by Catherine M. Wilson
