Fiction

Lucy, a young lesbian, is going to university soon and wants to learn all about how to fight for queer rights, just as her Uncle Mike and his husband Baz did, being radical activists for many years. Mike literally wrote the book about it, a book Lucy considers her inspiration. Now she's going to spend the summer with Mike and Baz at the rambling old farmhouse they have restored and learn all she can from them. But Mike and Baz seem so domestic now. So settled into the lives of the quiet village where they live. They spend their time organising church fetes or doing volunteer shifts in the village shop rather than organising protests and picket lines. Lucy can't see how giving old ladies rides to hospital appointments helps to smash the patriarchy. Have the two former radicals sold out and given up the fight?
