Ellen Lewin's unprecedented research on lesbian mothers in the San Francisco area captured a vivid portrait of the moment before gay and lesbian parenting moved into the mainstream of U.S. culture. Drawing on interviews with 135 women, Lewin provided her readers with a new understanding of the attitudes of individual women, the choices they made, and the texture of their daily lives.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46471063863447,"sku":"9781501728037","price":2948.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781501728037.jpg?v=1766243704","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/lesbian-mothers-accounts-of-gender-in-american-culture-9781501728037","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
