Coming to Power is more than an attempt to put sex back into lesbian politics. It is an attempt to show, through stories, graphics and analysis, just how political lesbian sex really is. It is an attempt to remind all of us that we must continue our fight to define sexual relations in our own terms as something valid and important. And it’s the best thing that has been published on feminist theory/practice in a long, long time. So let’s go for that long-awaited walk on the wild side. (from the back cover)

Iconic lesbian sm literature. The publishing of this collection was responsible for both the destruction and the legacy of Samois, one of the most iconic lesbian sm organizations. A must have for any nerd of lesbian sadomasochistic history or culture

I first read this almost 20 years ago when I was just coming into my sexual identity. Fabulous, diverse content, great combination of fiction and non-fiction. Much of the content is still relevant. Essential to my library.

The first, and still the best collection of information about lesbian sadomasochist, without apology, written in the middle of the raging politics of the time when feminism had no place for us.
