BARNES, DJUNA Ladies Almanack: Showing Their Signs and Their Tides; Their Moons and Their Changes; the Seasons As It Is with Them; Their Eclipses and Equinoxes;
NYU Press, 1992. (ISBN: 0814711804) Paperback , 8.2 x 5.4 x 0.4 inches. Djuna Barnes must have had great fun writing and illustrating this book. It's a lively lampoon of her lesbian chums of Left Bank Paris in the 1920s. The main character, Dame Evangeline Musset, is based on the notorious dyke Natalie Barney. Structured as a month-by-month almanac in a style that owes as much to Shakespeare's comedies as to any literature of the intervening centuries, Barnes's book follows the Dame's amorous, often naughty, adventures. Light edge wear , Very Good.
