...lovers: an amazing melange of artists and writers, aristocrats, suffragettes, and lesbians. It becomes impossible to keep track of all of them, a veritable "regiment of women" with an array of delightful 1920s names that could come straight out of P.G. Wodehouse: Toupie, Winaretta, Honey, Budge...and an apparently endless succession of Violets. But Hall's wide network of personal and professional acquaintances also included many of the period's most famous feminists, suffragettes, and publicly visible lesbians-- such as the novelist May Sinclair, the composer Dame Ethel Smythe, and the Paris-based painter Romaine Brooks.

Propositions have remained popular; they have made politics matter in California. They are debated over all the channels of communication: they have spawned flashy billboards and commercials in prime time, slogans on buttons and biting bumper stickers on the endless stream of cars on the freeway.

At each stage in the endless legal battles, judges, prosecutors and lawyers have made decisions that, while technically defensible, have had brutal consequences for the parties, their innocent friends and, ultimately, the country...
...week Monica ruled the waves. It was radio Monica every day and TV-talk-show Monica every night. Monica made every morning's paper and the cover of the weekly magazines. Like an endless D-day announcement, she rippled across the other famous zipper, in Times Square. But if you craved Monica maximus, there was only one place for you. On the Web it was all Monica all the time...
