>My new book, Beyond the Pale, a Jewish lesbian historical novel that takes
>place in Russia and NY between 1860 and 1912   is hot of the presses!
>Published by Press Gang in Vancouver (http://www.pressgang.bc.ca), it
>looks great.
>
>"Beyond the Pale puts a lesbian spin on the compelling story of Jewish
>passage from the world of Tsarist Russia into the radical cauldron of New
>York City at the century's turn. A wash of vivid detail, this bold, often
>dazzling blend of history and sensuality, sex and politics, tradition and
>rupture, fact and fiction, demonstrates that Elana Dykewomon is one of our
>era's most gifted writers." -- Melanie Kaye/Kantrowitz
>
> Press Gang has scheduled a launch, and I've extended that with a tour
>of the East Coast ...  the following is the current tour schedule, with as
>much detail as I have. Hope to see you at one of the readings!
