"The #dybbuk is an iconic villain of #Jewish #folklore. As we know from #SAnsky’s 1920 play “#TheDybbuk,” this malevolent spirit clings to a human host, taking over its body and mind to haunting and tragic effect.

But in #EllenGalford’s 1993 #satiricalnovel “The Dyke and the Dybbuk,” a dybbuk named Kokos meets her match in a 20th century Jewish #lesbian named Rainbow Rosenbloom.

Now, ahead of the #novel’s June 2 rerelease via Sinister Wisdom, we are pleased to share an excerpt of this vital piece of #queer Jewish #literature.

The following is an excerpt from “#TheDykeandtheDybbuk” by Ellen #Galford."
