Written collectively by the founders of WomanShare, this is a document of a life made in rupture: a group of women who left the city, men and capitalism to build, in 1974, a self-managed lesbian community in southern Oregon. Drawing on radical feminism and on the back-to-the-land movement, they built a life together on twenty-three acres, free of hierarchy, working the land.

ABOUT

The project

SpineIndex is an archive of independent books on photography and visual culture: photobooks, publications, design books and self-published editions — the kind of work that rarely makes it into bookshop windows or mainstream catalogues. It exists to document, connect, and keep visible a world of publishers, artists, and makers who operate outside conventional distribution. A living reference for anyone who takes this territory seriously — collectors, researchers, students, and the simply curious.

Images and rights

Covers, interior pages and descriptions are shown to introduce and identify the books, always crediting publisher, author and photographer and linking back to the publisher. We ask publishers for their permission, and we remove anything on request within 7 days. If you are a publisher, an author or a photographer and you want something changed or removed, write to info@spineindex.it.
