MY SISTER, MY LOVE
- Derby, CT: Monarch Books, Inc, 1963
Derby, CT: Monarch Books, Inc, 1963. First edition. Very good plus.. First printing of this notorious lesbian pulp novel by a pseudonymous Marion Zimmer Bradley. Early '60s pulp with a lurid, exploitative hook but contemplative, angst-ridden content, featuring seductions to the strains of Sibelius on the phonograph ("the dark sounds and floating melancholy of The Swan of Tuonela," specifically.) Well-reviewed in the Lesbiana column of The Ladder, which noted approvingly: "The novel is well written, unmarred by the sexual excess expected in paperback originals." Rated "Objectionable" by the National Organization for Decent Literature. 7'' x 4.25''. Original color pictorial wrappers, from a "Special Color Photo" by Lester K. Kraus. 144 pages. Mild edgewear; crease to rear cover; faint dampstaining to upper edge.
