Furthest from the Gate

Edición de la obra Furthest from the Gate

Kate Mitchell started noticing girls way back when she was in the first grade. Even then, Kate's rebellious nature kept her from conforming to the rest of the world's rules. Her early years were filled with many memorable mishaps... like ruining a wedding, taking a girl to the middle school dance, and falling in love with her best friend. While growing up gay isn't easy for anyone, it's especially difficult for Kate, whose mother has a future in politics. Having a lesbian for a daughter may jeopardize Barbara Mitchell's chances at winning a legislative seat, but the antics of Barbara's brother may collapse the entire family. Furthest From The Gate is a humorous chronicle of a woman's coming of age, her complicated relationship with her mother, and the responsibilities to family that last a lifetime. —Back cover
