This groundbreaking book, first published in 1982, is the story of two teenage girls whose friendship blossoms into love and who, despite pressures from family and school that threaten their relationship, promise to be true to each other and their feelings. From the moment Liza Winthrop meets Annie Kenyon at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, she knows there is something special between them. But Liza never knew falling in love could be so wonderful . . . or so confusing. Of the author and the book, the Margaret A. Edwards Award committee said, "Nancy Garden has the distinction of being the first author for young adults to create a lesbian love story with a positive ending. Using a fluid, readable style, Garden opens a window through which readers can find courage to be true to themselves." The 25th Anniversary Edition features a full-length interview with the author by Kathleen T. Horning, Director of the Cooperative Children's Book Center. Ms. Garden answers such revealing questions as how she knew she was gay, why she wrote the book, censorship, and the book's impact on readers - then and now. "No single work has done more for young adult LGBT fiction than this classic about two teenage girls who fall in love." --School Library Journal
Garden, Nancy
Nancy Garden, cujos prêmios incluem o Lambda Book e o Margaret A. Edwards, gostava de ir a escolas e conferências para conversar com alunos, professores, bibliotecários e outras pessoas. Escreveu muitos livros para crianças e jovens adultos, entre eles, o livro ilustrado Molly’s family (com ilustrações de Sharon Wooding), os romances Meeting Melanie e The year they burned the books, além de uma coletânea de contos chamada Hear us out! Lesbian and gay stories of struggle, progress, and hope — 1950 to the present. Nancy Garden e sua companheira, junto ao seu cão e aos seus gatos, viviam dividindo o seu tempo entre uma cidadezinha de Massachusetts e Mount Desert, no Maine, nos Estados Unidos. Nancy Garden faleceu em 23 de junho de 2014, em Carlisle, Massachusetts. |
