Written in 1983, it really must have been ahead of it's time, and I can see why it's a classic lesbian novel.<br/><br/>I can't find any references confirming it, but I wonder i...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/18153951">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[OK, it's a romance novel. A fun, steamy lesbian one--but a romance novel none the less. If you don't expect too much from it, it's a fun read. <em>Curious Wine</em> was evidently quite scandalous for its time (published 1983) but it almost seems quaint today.
