Anglo-American Alliance: A Serio-Comic Romance and Forecast of the Future, An by Gregory Casparian (1856 - 1942)
by LibriVox
Described by io9 as “the first lesbian science fiction novel,” An Anglo-American Alliance is a quasi-farcical tale of love, transformation, and geopolitics set in the far-flung futuristic year of 1960.

Throughout this tale, we follow their trials and tribulations as they grapple with secret longings and learn how to harness the powers of science and technology to make their dreams come true.
