Introduction: "For the point of orgasm one does not imagine the absence of orgasm, as one does not imagine silence when listening to twelve flawless sopranos, as one does not imagine despair whe filled with religious ecstacy. For the women's Liberation Movement, as well as everything else it is, is a work of the imagination and to imagine it gone, to believe it might never existed, that there are no others to take up the burden and the joy, is to sing it to certain death." -- Short stories written with a glittering grace of language which both emphasises Anna's gift for witty dialogue and lets us perceive, if we choose, the underlying emotional values of these tales. In 'Saccharin Cyanide', Anna Livia gives us contemporary dyke dramas, lyrical science fiction fantasies, snappy advice and fables that are at once sexy and surprising.
