PRAISE FOR THE RAW BRUNETTES

"Lorraine Schein plays among the mysteries. She delights in the ecstasy of language, the wild subversion of the very idea of wildness, of what it might mean to be a free woman. She creates incantations that wink at us at the same time that they sing rhythmically, insistently, through the night...We have heard a great deal lately about wild women. We see women with animals, women on motorcycles, women with guns, Lorraine Schein understands that so much of this is just borrowed images, borrowed from the culture of men, which is to say the only culture the world recognizes. As Lorraine tells us, any woman is more subersive than any man. Not even by the nature of women, but simply because women do not exist in a world made by men. So women's hearts keep their rawness, only concealed by layers of fake culture, until the Brunettes come to rend us asunder."
--Rachel Pollack, from her foreword
