About The Book

Ann Aldrich flings a provocative assertion at her readers in 1955 when she opens her groundbreaking account of lesbian life in New York City by saying this book is the « result of fifteen years of participation in society as a female homosexual. »

After the release of We Walk Alone, Aldrich became both a heroine and a scapegoat in some of the period’s most contentious public debates over what exactly « lesbian culture » was. Her non-fiction pulp literally transformed the landscape overnight.

Part Kinsey-esque portraits of real people, part you-are-there reports on the scene in bars and offices and at clubs and house parties, this is a unique « cultural artifact, » a compelling composite of an alienated yet amazingly self-aware community. Ann Aldrich is both observer and commentator, writing investigative journalism in the mode of Doris Lessing. As Stephanie Foote explains in her afterword, the combination produces « as rich and conflicted a look at the formation of lesbian urban culture as that of any contemporary queer historian. »
