Along with violence against women around the globe, lesbians of the 1970s and 80s were motivated by growing militarism, rampant development, species loss, and living systems in decline. For many, this was the logical conclusion to a state of law/mind/rule that had prevailed for thousands of years patriarchy.This is a long overdue and unvarnished insiders account of those times. The memoir, centered in the Northeast U.S. and then later in Quebec, combines a personal story with the story of a political movement. The book is full of celebration, but also depicts the shadow side of the lesbian movement, taking the reader into the bitter squabbles that divided women, both personally and politically. On a deeper level, the memoir charts a long and difficult quest for love. Over and over, the narrator dives headlong into rapturous passions that either fizzle out or come to brutal and ugly endings.In the mid-80s, when a friend invites her to a Zen retreat, she as desperate enough to say yes. A period of difficult self-examination ensues and, over a period of years, she begins to learn an altogether different approach to desire. The last section of the memoir traces the fallout from that collision between hot-blooded lesbian desire and spacious, temperate Zen mind. What the search for pure lust uncovers, in the end, is something that looks a lot like love....1488656In Search of Pure Lust202246https://www.gandhi.com.mx/in-search-of-pure-lust-1/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/422140/3cdfce52-5b74-49f9-8341-9ea12db608c3.jpg?v=638334753733200000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20189781771334983_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_In Search of Pure Lust documents an important chapter in lesbian history that is already being distorted and erased, a time when lesbians were reinventing everything from the ground up.
