In the 1950s, Ann Bannon broke through the shame and isolation typically portrayed in lesbian pulps, offering instead women characters who embraced their sexuality. With Odd Girl Out, Bannon introduces Laura Landon, whose love affair with her college roommate Beth launched the lesbian pulp fiction genre.

Reviews for Odd Girl out
Bannon's books let me imagine myself into her New York City neighbourhood of short-haired, dark-eyed butch women and stubborn, tight-lipped secretaries with hearts ready to be broken. - Dorothy Allison, Salon.co.uk
