“The Aldridge novels combined rich historical detail, and romance, “ says Jacobs,  “along with the fight, in every single book, for strong women to overcome the barriers placed on their careers and relationships by 19th and 20th century society,” says Fay Jacobs, A&M Books publisher.

 

Jacobs notes that many of today’s best selling feminist writers talk of their introduction to lesbian fiction though the Sarah Aldridge books. A&M Books still receives dozens of inquiries a month from young authors and readers who want meet the willful and passionate women created by Marchant at a time when little else in literature reflected a positive view of lesbian feminists and their relationships.

 

“A&M Books is going to concentrate on sharing Anyda Marchant’s legacy by keeping the Sarah Aldridge books available, “says Jacobs “and making certain that we support independent booksellers and feminist writers. That was Anyda’s passion.”
