When she returned to the editor, the book was published without changing a word of her second version, and it became Odd Girl Out. Her editor handed it back to her and told her to focus on the two women. Not until 1983 did author Bannon learn that her first novel was the second best-selling paperback of 1957.īannon's original story submitted to Gold Medal Books was about events in a sorority, in which a subplot involved an affair two women were having. Each edition was adorned with a different cover.
It was originally published in 1957 by Gold Medal Books, again in 1983 by Naiad Press, and again in 2001 by Cleis Press. Odd Girl Out is a lesbian pulp fiction novel written in 1957 by Ann Bannon (pseudonym of Ann Weldy), the first in a series of pulp fiction novels that eventually came to be known as The Beebo Brinker Chronicles.
