But she is also widely known for her fiction, her “cozy” mysteries as well as her standalone novels. Her book Rubyfruit Jungle, published in 1973, has become a literary classic. In this 1993 interview Brown discusses the issues she raises in her novel Venus Envy.

New narrative was a way of mixing philosophical and literary theory with writing about the body and pop culture. It was promoted by a group of writers in 1970s San Francisco.

He joins Dodie Bellamy in a programme exploring different aspects of the gay imagination and the re-inventing of tradition presented by Naomi Paxton. Alongside them is Lauren Elkin, author of a study of unruly bodies in feminist art called Art Monsters which explores artists including Carolee Schneemann, and the influence of writers like Kathy Acker. And James Corley has adapted a play, opening at Wilton's in London, which takes an influential essay by Merle Miller as its starting point. Producer: Luke Mulhall You can find a collection called Identity Discussion on the Free Thinking programme website which includes episodes about including Rocky Horror and camp, the V&A exhibition Diva, punk, tattoos, and perfecting the body.

And we're back! The girls' first book of Series 5 on LGBTQ+ authors is Rita Mae Brown's bestselling "Rubyfruit Jungle". In discussing (arguably) the first lesbian protagonist in popular culture, the girls talk: - The effect of a shining superhero lead character in tackling oppression - How that makes us feel as gals that love a bit of emotional struggle and nuance - Interestingly, how Molly's self-belief trips our (super-Irish) "Notions" alarm, and how that's just very uncomfortable - Plus Chloe Cullen in her best dramatic performance to date! And we did not go on one tangent! Okay that was a lie. We did foray into - How OBSESSED we are with all the people making epoxy resin charms and jewellery on Instagram, we just CANT with you people!! - Saoirse's unwavering dedication to PopSugar fitness videos. And the fact that she does them with no shoes on. Which we insist is weird. It IS weird, right?! - And of course, finally, Katie's crazy forehead-vein. We don't know how it took so long to bring it up to be honest It's all here in this week's Chick Lit 4 Life! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lc-lewis/message
