5.0 out of 5 stars a hot read--fun for the straight reader too, June 24, 1999

By	Clarinda Harriss "Clarinda Harriss, poet/prof" (Towson, Maryland) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Heatwave: Women in Love and Lust (Paperback)

Lesbian, bi or straight, a woman is bound to find SOMETHING here that will amuse, enlighten, or, yes, turn her on. The lead story, Towson University grad Teresa Palomar's hilarious take-off on Thurber's famous "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty," is worth the price of the book all by itself.
