Everything you need to understand or teach After Sappho by Selby Wynn Schwartz.
In After Sappho, Selby Wynn Schwartz uses the lives of many famous lesbians and feminists—including Virginia Woolf, Lina Poletti, and Sibilla Aleramo—to assemble a complex and fragmentary novel that challenges the novelistic form itself. Throughout the narrative, Schwartz explores themes of queer love, political repression, and the overwhelming power of art.
