French translation by Jean Gompel with an illustrated jacket by Leon Bonnotte, of the autobiographical novel of a lesbian, Diana: The Story of a Strange Love, first published in English in 1939. Grier in The Lesbian in Literature gives it the highest grade of importance, designating it a must have for any collection of lesbian literature. Diana “marks an advance in psychological perspective since Radclyffe Hall’s wholly emotional plea for tolerance a decade earlier.” (Jeannette H. Foster: Sex Variant Women in Literature).
