Amazon.com Review
If you are kinky, male or female, straight, bi or gay, and you don't have this book, you need to get it. Written as a storm was raging about feminism, SM, and being lesbian, this offers honest and explicate discussions of how lesbian SM worked. There's advice on how-to do some activities, discussions of the politics of SM, and also some very in your face theory about being kinky and defining relationships. Its a book I've read several times. It is very short, mind you, but so worth the price to get your hands on articles you just can't find any more.
Coming to Power - Writing and graphics on Lesbian S/M was a 1981 book edited by members of the lesbian/feminist S/M organization Samois.
It reached a world-wide audience the following year when it was reprinted by Alyson Publications. The book alternates short stories with advice on techniques, a model that has been used by various other BDSM books since then.
A sequel, The Second Coming: A Leatherdyke Reader, was published in 1996, edited by Pat Califia and Robin Sweeney.
