Nun Better
Two Catholic nuns who had taken a vow of celibacy fall deeply in love, leave the Church and blaze their own holy path by merging their commitment to God and to each other in a lifelong romance that sparkles with joy and celebration. NUN BETTER: An Amazing Love Story, begins in the 1980s when society scorned LGBTQ+ love and same-sex marriage seemed an impossible dream, and ends as a testament to true love and lifelong bliss.
Spirits of The Roaring Sea
Spirits of the Roaring Sea ventures into re-structuring the systemic narratives. By following through the path breaking journeys of women in a poetic arena, we learn that there is no space for a "different". We come from the same roots in one way or the other. Through stories of love, insecurities, and movements, we find a space to embrace our passion, desires, and a "truest self.”
Lesbian Nuns
The new edition includes a new foreword that looks at the impact the original edition had on both the lesbian and the mainstream cultures. The authors have added individual afterwords, describing how their lives were changed when their book went mainstream.
Immodest Acts
The discovery of the fascinating and richly documented story of Sister Benedetta Carlini, Abbess of the Convent of the Mother of God, by Judith C. Brown was an event of major historical importance. Not only is the story revealed in Immodest Acts that of the rise and fall of a powerful woman in a church community and a record of the life of a religious visionary, it is also the earliest documentation of lesbianism in modern Western history. Born of well-to-do parents, Benedetta Carlini entered the convent at the age of nine. At twenty-three, she began to have visions of both a religious and erotic nature. Benedetta was elected abbess due largely to these visions, but later aroused suspicions by claiming to have had supernatural contacts with Christ. During the course of an investigation, church authorities not only found that she had faked her visions and stigmata, but uncovered evidence of a lesbian affair with another nun, Bartolomeo. The story of the relationship between the two nuns and of Benedetta's fall from an abbess to an outcast is revealed in surprisingly candid archival documents and retold here with a fine sense of drama.

Jesus was a Feminist
The result of four decades of research, Jesus Was a Feminist compellingly presents the case that Jesus treated women equally with men, and he boldly broke the customs of his day to involve them in his work. Renowned scholar and leader among liberal Catholics Leonard Swidler examines all gospel texts involving women, asserts that women were involved in the writing of two of the gospels, and outlines the importance of women in Jesus' ministry and the creation and development of the early church. He shows how Jesus was a feminist and modern Christians should be too. Click here for the Detailed Table of Contents (pdf)
