Chloe Plus Olivia

This landmark work is the most complete compilation of its kind, offering an enlightened view of a diverse and long-neglected genre. Arranged in thematic sections are a generous and wide range of selections--fiction, poetry, and essays from writers past and present, including Emily Dickinson, Carson McCullers, Christina Rossetti, and Rita Mae Brown.

First sentence: For centuries before the successes of the first wave of feminism a little over a hundred years ago, much of social life in the Western world, especially for the middle and upper classes, was carried on in homosocial environments.
