birds of lace

i run a very small feminist press out of my apartment. mostly zines & a literary journal that comes out about 2x a year called finery. recently birds of lace published the illustrious anna joy springer's insanely excellent illustrated novella The Birdwisher. below is information on how to get your paws on some of these fabulous offerings. the links will lead you to excerpts from the books as well. all of these treats are also available at needles & pens in san francisco.
