Scouting for Queers

In this text one somewhat loses the measure of actual lesbians, the bodies and lusts and desires and beings of lesbians—“those lesbians who only appear as rigorously as possible within the name lesbian” (8), perhaps. As a young frequenter of Hepburn’s, the bar, Villarejo made good use of the “teeny pads of lavender paper . . . ready for the exchange of phone numbers and note-taking” (1). She herself refl ects that she did “more of the latter than the former,” and if all that note-taking resulted in this complex and illuminating book, one also wishes for an appendix to illuminate the “slippages between meanings” (5) (if not between bodies) that even those few phone numbers might have generated.
