SKYLIT: Camille Roy, ”HONEY MINE” w/ Michelle Tea

A content warning for this episode: discussions of sexual assault and incest.   Honey Mine unfolds as both excavation and romp, an adventure story that ushers readers into a lesbian writer's coming of age through disorienting, unsparing, and exhilarating encounters with sex, gender, and distinctly American realities of race and class. From childhood in Chicago's South Side to youth in the lesbian underground, Roy's politics find joyful and transgressive expression in the liberatory potential of subculture. Find here, in these new, uncollected and out-of-print fictions by a master of New Narrative, a record of survival and thriving under conditions of danger. _______________________________________________   Produced by Maddie Gobbo, Lance Morgan, & Michael Kowaleski.
