'At that time I could not imagine what would become of me, and I
didn't care. It was not judgement day, but another morning' This is
the story of Jeanette, adopted and brought up by working-class
evangelists in the North of England to be one of God's elect.
Passionate, headstrong and shielded by her mother's grand
disapproval of a sinful world, she seems destined for life as a
missionary. And then she meets Melanie. At sixteen, Jeanette faces
a world of uncertainty as she breaks from the church and her
community for the young woman she loves. Oranges Are Not the Only
Fruit is a warm, witty and daring novel that gives voice to
irrepressible desire. Meet ten of literature's most iconic
heroines, jacketed in bold portraits by female photographers from
around the world.
