The Sewing Circle
Author: Axel Madsen
Publisher: Open Road Media
ISBN: 1504008529
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 327
Book Description
Greta Garbo, Marlene Dietrich, and Barbara Stanwyck—to name a few—maintained their images as glamorous big-screen sex symbols complete with dashing escorts, handsome husbands, and scores of male admirers, thanks to studio publicity departments. But off the set, all three box office divas were involved in “lavender” marriages (marriages of convenience, often to gay men) or remained stoically single. They, and several other Hollywood starlets of the era, were members of a discreet women’s “club” called the Sewing Circle, Hollywood’s underground lesbian society. Madsen takes a candid look at the very complicated dual lives these great stars led and the impact their preference for same-sex relationships had on their movie careers.

Languages : en
Pages : 137
Book Description
I wont be the last woman who found true love and her soul mate in the arms of a Forbidden Fruit that belonged to another. I wont be the last woman to endure the heart and head struggle with right and wrong, for love and desire. I wont be the last woman to surrender her heart, her soul and her body to a man, only to have it taken by him and then discarded. Nor will I be the last woman who endures the hurt, the pain and the loss at losing the love of her life and her soul mate and in such an insensitive and cowardly manner. He wont be the last man who found himself loving two women at once. Nor will he be the last man to succumb to temptation and desire in the arms of another woman, having to eventually decide on one, knowing full well that the discarded one will be ultimately hurt. This book of poetry is dedicated to the only man I have ever really loved; to the man who used to call me Gorgeous; to the man who told me I was amazing and too intelligent for him. This book is for the man who picked me up from the depths of despair after a horrible and emotionally abusive marriage; who showed me that there is nothing that I cant do if I want to bad enough and; most importantly; to the man who showed me how to love him unconditionally and then; chose to severe me from his life with a text message, despite promising that he never would. All of these poems have been written from my heart for him and him alone. This book of poetry is for you, My Love, My Soul Mate, My Eros, and My Adonis, all rolled into one.
