description: These Are The Unbridled Desires Of Women Without Men... When Their Same-Sex Passion Explodes, Will The Stables Ever Be Safe Again? You've read about them, these sisters under the skin, vulnerable to the temptations of Sappho... Passion-starved twilight girls crossing over into a man's world of high withers, rippling hindquarters and glossy coats... Meet women like Pauline in "Miss Barnard's Unit"--the country girl bereft of feminine influence who comes of age in World War I, and comes undone in the arms of a worldly debutante... Terry in "Snake Eyes for Silky, " a jockey from the school of hard knocks who falls hard for a whip-wielding gangster's moll, and finds that she must choose between her heart and her horse... Innocents like Lena and Lily in "The Chosen Horse, " who bond over the sad fate of a cart horse, and their unspoken need to tread the waters of Lesbos... A world-class jumper like Julie in "Lady Snow, " a champion tempted by the irresistible rhythms of the bisexual Euro-beat... A young girl like Oreola in "Pastures of Passion, " who follows a lost foal to a curious farm girl--and her own destiny... These Are The Women Of The Big Book Of Lesbian Horse Stories. The Paddock Gates Are Open--Come Inside And Join The Fun! With an inspired sense of nostalgia, sensation, and wry humor, Alisa Surkis and Monica Nolan invite readers back into the curves of third-sex pulp fiction where odd-girls-out now ride as free as a filly with their Bohemian desires--side-saddle be damned. But this time, from coy flirtation to requited lust, there's nary a man in sight to set them on the straight-and-narrow.
