Story
Sappho ( c. 630-c. 570 BC) was an Archaic Greek poet from the island of Lesbos. In ancient times, Sappho was widely considered one of the greatest lyric poets and was given titles such as the "Tenth Muse" and "The Poetess". Her estimated date of birth places her sometime after the composition of the works of the Homeric poets, which are preserved in the epics known as the Iliad and the Odyssey. It is claimed that her work filled nine papyrus rolls in the famous library of Alexandria some 500 years after her death.

Story
In this volume we gather together verse from lesbian poets that is deeply personal and at times overwhelming. It is not just a search for physical love but a journey through the spiritual to completeness, to becoming whole. However we recognise that the label lesbian might be anachronistic and so also include those who stand by their sides or who have a view in verse that helps us to revel in their love. For in the end that is all our journey is about.

Story
Sappho is widely recognized as one of the great poets of world literature, an author whose works have caused her fans to repeat, in many different forms, Strabo’s amazed epithet when he wrote that she could only be called "a marvel". The reception of Sappho’s poetry, even through the 20th century, offers a case study of the conflicts induced by the sexual preferences she seemingly alludes to in her verse.
