This sequel (1958) to 'We walk alone' (1955), a portrait of lesbian life in the 1950s in and around New York, includes class questions: the diverse jobs lesbians held: social cliques: differences among the 'Village', 'Uptown' and Brooklyn communities: hints at the growing consciousness that would fuel later lesbian and gay rights movements: sample letters from the six hundred written to the author after 'We walk alone' was published.
