  1. 1

    What were your initial expectations of a book titled "Lesbian Nuns," and how did the collection of stories either confirm or challenge those preconceptions about religious life, sexuality, and identity?

  2. 2

    Many of the stories highlight the tension between institutional religious life and individual desires or identities. How do these narratives illuminate the challenges faced by individuals whose personal truths conflict with the doctrines or expectations of a powerful institution?

  3. 3

    The book explores lives lived, in many cases, with significant secrecy or self-repression. Can you recall a time in your own life, or in the lives of people you know, where societal or familial expectations led to a similar suppression of a core aspect of identity? What were the consequences?
