Cover, Back Text

"She did not try to deceive me by saying that she felt any urgent need to be freed from her homosexuality. On the contrary, she said she could not conceive of any other way of being in love.' So states Sigmund Freud in his startling case history of a woman in torment. Equally startling - and illuminating - are the other twelve probing studies in this candid anthology of fact and fiction dealing with women who love...other women." -Back cover

Cover Art Description

Over a beige background a figure is seen towards the bottom right of the cover, from her chest up. She is a redhead with her hair tied behind her back in a high bun, looking straight towards the reader with her body at a three-quarter angle to the left of the cover. She is wearing white décolletage with a light-blue ribbon tied in a bow under the strap on her right. Her head is slightly bowed and her face has a serious expression. The art style is photo-realism. The scene is lit from the top.
