Description:
Jane Traies: on secrets, books, and being whole
Writer, researcher, storyteller and oral historian Jane Traies has been recording the life histories of the oldest generations of lesbians in the UK.
Some of these stories feature in her books The Lives of Older Lesbians: Sexuality, Identity and the Life Course (2016) and Now You See Me (2018).
In November 2021 we had the opportunity and privilege of listening to Jane's story. The story of a journey from secrecy to finding community. Via a very precious copy of Maureen Duffy's "The microcosm".
Recorded remotely on November 18, 2021
