Silver Threads
Hares and Hyenas Anniversary podcast
Silver Threads is a celebration of 25 years of the Hares and Hyenas Bookstore in Fitzroy Melbourne, supported by the UNESCO City of Literature Known Bookshops fund, in association with the Australian Lesbian and Gay Archives, and in partnership with Melbourne Library Service.
Episode 1 - Joan Nestle, The Killing Air
Proud 'out' lesbian, spokeswoman for butch-femme desire, and a tireless freedom fighter, Joan laid the groundwork for the lesbian, gay and transgender movements of today by claiming her right to her own sexual identity at a time when to do so made her a figure of controversy.
Joan reads an introduction to her out of print book 'A Restricted Country' and a piece called 'The Killing Air'.
