about the book
dripping in love, yearning, heartache and nostalgia, this is how we love is a coffee table-worthy anthology featuring love letters, notes, poetry and artworks shared between lesbians across the globe. inspired by the instagram collective founded and curated by the editor, @lesbianlovenote, each page invites readers to travel, daydream, feel inspired, safe, celebrated, and above all, at home. this book combines dreamlike visuals with earnest words of love to create a unique time capsule documenting a plethora of modern-day relationships, contributing a positive and necessary representation of authentic lesbian love and existence to today’s creative landscape.
nothing beats being the majority, and here, for once, we are the majority.
