Sex on the odd side

Love on the Odd Side front cover. Two female bodies appear to be naked, one next to the other, in mirrored, standing poses displayed from their ankles up. The image seems to be a photograph-based collage, so parts of their bodies are displayed while others are veiled in films of paint or ink. The women's backs face the reader, and their arms are, one on their hair, the other on their hips, in a mirrored way. The background is a diffused abstraction in oranges, yellows, reds and purples that center on an image that could resemble a uterus.

Chris

Chris front cover. The face of a blond woman with head leaned back looking directly toward the reader and bathed in a red light dominates the image on all the edges, as a background. Her mouth is in rest and her eyes are half-closed. To the bottom right, and partially covering the blonde's face, another figure of a blonde is seen, with her back to the reader. She has long, wavy hair, bangs hanging over her eyebrows. Her body is twisted to the front and left, and her head hangs down to the left, equally turned and with eye closed. Her arms are crossed across her chest, both hands clasped to the other arm. She wears a black skirt that is unzipped at the back and her entire back is bare. The scene is lit from the front-left.
Chris faces a difficult choice between her relationship with Shelia "Dizz" Dizendorf and the hope of happiness with Carol Martin

Portrait of a lesbian

Portrait of a lesbian front cover. A red and black halftone image of the face of a woman with short hair fills most of the space against a black background. The face occupies the right half of the cover, positioned at a three-quarter angle facing left of the reader. The woman's eyes look straight out at the reader, lit with hard light from the front-right. The title is at the top and is a combination of sans-serif and serif fonts.

Charlene's aunt

Charlene's Aunt front cover. Over a white background with text at top third is a smaller image, underneath. It is a monochromatic drawing in sepia / reddish brown showing the busts of two women. The one on the right faces the reader, with her head, turned to her right and upwards, eyes closed and lips parted. She is wearing a ruffled blouse with a high collar, and her hair is long. Her right cheek is pressed against the right cheek of another woman whom she embraces, her right hand wrapping the back of her head. The other woman is in profile, facing the first woman, her torso naked. Her face is turned to her left into the other woman's right shoulder, and her right arm is stretched downwards. Her hair is also long. Above them is an ornamented frame in an Art Nouveau style.
