Steamy Lynne Cheney novel to be reissued
In 1981, long before her husband was elected vice president, Lynne Cheney wrote "Sisters," a steamy bodice-ripper set in the 19th-century American West, featuring vivid tales of whorehouses, attempted rapes, a suspicious murder and several lesbian affairs, of which Cheney wrote approvingly. The paperback, published in Canada, has been out of print for nearly two decades. But on April 6 the book is scheduled to be released for the first time in the United States. A Cheney spokesperson says the reissue came as a surprise to the second lady. Cheney told The Washington Post in October 2000: "The reports of my novel are greatly exaggerated. Nevertheless, I hope they improve sales."
