    About this ebook

    Loneliness, lust, liquor, and drugs make up the ingredients for many in the lesbian experience. The bar scene takes place in Chicago in the fifties. It covers a period of over ten years.



    The Menagerie Bar is the crossroad or oasis for a menagerie motley people, bar people, pimps, whores, transvestites, gay and lesbian, and of course, the trick customers.



    Through the haze of alcohol, drugs, and sex is the love story of two dissimilar lesbian lovers; star-crossed, desperately in love and violently destined to part.
