The Roughest Day

Published 2020

"The Personal is Political" was an iconic feminist slogan in the 20^th century. In practice the personal and the political were like two trains on parallel tracks, but moving at different speeds, sometimes one ahead, sometimes the other. The Roughest Day is one Australian lesbian’s journey from the 1960s to 2017, set against the social revolution that swept across much (though not all) the world across those years.
