Set in the 19th century, Isabel Miller's classic lesbian novel traces the relationship between Patience White - an educated painter - and Sarah Dowling, a cross-dressing farmer. Their romantic bond does not sit well with the puritanical New England farming community in which they live and ultimately they are forced to make life-changing decisions that depend on their courage and commitment to one another.
Isabel Miller was the author of numerous novels, including two under her real name, Alma Routsong. Her novels include Side by Side, The Love of Good Women and Laurel.
