Risk is Elana Dykewomon's first novel since the extraordinarily well-received and frequently re-printed Beyond the Pale, an impeccably researched, nuanced tale of migration from the Russian pogroms to the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire. Rich in the complexity and contradictions of women's lives: mothers, midwives, workers, visionaries and, yes, lesbians. Beyond the Pale has sold 35,000 copies to date and is still selling. Risk will appeal to Dykewomon's many audiences: literary readers Jews lesbians feminists students of labor students of history and readers who appreciate excellent, sweeping novels with a deep political sensibility and vision In California, where gays and lesbians can now legally marry, and in all states where gay-marriage is a November ballot issue, stories about long-term lesbian relationships are suddenly in demand. "[Dykewomon]is a name I always watch for on the list of new books. Finding a new collection by [Dykewomon] is a guaranteed boost." Dorothy Allison
