Between Two Women

Married for 33 years and the mother of three grown children, Patricia led a comfortable life until she fell in love with a woman. Leaving her husband to live with her lover, she plunges into an emotional storm. Her identity is radically disrupted; her family and friends are bewildered and angry. Then she meets Carol, a 69 year-old woman who knew from the time she was a child that she was a lesbian. As Carol tells the story of her closeted life during the 50s and 60s, Patricia navigates the consequences of her impulsiveness. Braiding Carol's and Patricia's stories, Between Two Women illuminates fundamental questions about the nature of love and relationships.
