banQuet 2010

A feast of new writing and art by Australian queer women

Sassy, edgy protagonists shove the boundaries of sexuality, gender and convention in these tales of desire, unlikely couplings, jealousy, homecomings and impending catastrophes. This banQuet of stories and images by emerging writers and artists offers thought-provoking, smile-inducing snapshots of what it is like to be a queer woman.

"Hot, confronting stories of queer women we know and those we’d love to know!"
Ginni Hettihewa, JOY 94.9 FM

Available for $24.95 at:

and online at bookpod

"It is a veritable feast of work that will whet your appetite for more. The artwork is disarmingly erotic, with exceptional drawings from Applemint and Jo Perry, and as with any banquet, there are always favourite dishes, mine is ‘Not Just for the Ride’ by Deanne Carson."
