Produktbeschreibung
CALL ME QUIXOTE Love on the Line Quixote, an elder wedding officiant, learns her ride will be late picking her up after a ceremony. She joins a group of young lesbians by their campfire while she waits, sharing her whiskey and wisdom. Curious about her name, they ask why she chose it. Q trades them a story for a s'more. Twenty years ago, in a city far, far away, a series of sudden coincidences propelled two middle-aged Minnesota lesbians into the adventure of a lifetime. While seizing a fleeting opportunity, Genta and Maria receive both taunts from bigoted protestors, and supportive PB&Js from drag queen nuns. They experience romance in the City of Love one night and suffer a wild winter storm throughout the next. Stubbornly refusing to give up, they hold their place in line for over twenty-four hours. Can they reach their impossible dream to be legally married, or will the windmill giant, Fear, defeat their love? Read Genta Sebastian's fascinating account of a remarkable Valentine's weekend in 2004 when Mayor Gavin Newsom provided the first legal marriage licenses for same-sex couples in the United States of America. She was there and this is what happened.

Autorenporträt
Genta Sebastian runs with scissors, always laughs without shame, sometimes writes naked, and dreams big. She started life as a child and against her own advice swiftly attained adulthood. Full grown adulting, however, proved to lie just outside her skill set and beyond her ken.

Instead, she's enjoyed being an elementary school teacher, crochet artiste, amateur community theater player, master teacher, criminally wicked cookie baker, professional storyteller, Christmas stocking needle-pointer, an okay parent, cool grandparent, and epic great-grandparent. And along the way she also found time to become a published, award-winning author.
