I found it compelling and resonant when I read it in my early twenties. It was exciting and fun to see myself described in the pages so often, to have my likes, dislikes and instinctive responses connected to a tribe. Revisiting the book, it hasn't always stood up to scrutiny. I think Grahn herself would say she's more poet than historian, and some of her imaginative leaps now seem far-fetched to me. But I still value the book for what it gave me. I look forward to seeing this blog, and reading the Isherwood.
