What happens when an old radical lesbian feminist has an idea of publishing a collection of her papers? She looks at her writings and despairs. She has written too much. The idea gets shelved. Fifteen years later, she revisits the project. But it is worse now because she has written more ... But being stared down by her publisher she gets a grip and (painfully) pares down her oeuvre to a manageable size.
