Title: Unnatural Passions
Product review: Winterson's exploitation of her coming out as a lesbian against all odds--namely her overbearing mother and her church--sets a standard for all individuals still coming to terms with their own sexuality. In every respect, Winterson has reasons for insecurity. The same church that once embraced her condemns her for unorthodox practices; her friends mock and desert her; her mother who once expressed unconditional love towards her daughter, now disowns her. What then? Left with nothing but herself and her homosexuality, Winterson puts two and two together and creates her own world where oranges are not the only fruit. I truly admire her inner strength--if only the rest of us found love within ourselves when the world turns dark--we'd be much happier. I say, let your true self radiate from within. Life is too short to live by others' standards and criticisms.
