E W S (Initials Only - Serious Buyers Contact Seller For Full Name)
19972000 Manuscript Diaries of a Lesbian Mother Confronting Sobriety Shame and the Search for Self in Late-Twentieth-Century Florida
Sarasota Arcadia Florida. Very Good with no dust jacket. 1997. Hardcover. On offer is a pair of diaries belonging to a middle-aged mother who began keeping a journal in order to write her way through her feelings surrounding her identity as a lesbian. Through her writing she also explores her struggles with multiple addictions and the impact her challenges have on her school-aged child who would sadly die only six months after her final entry. Anonymized but complete biographical information on our author is available in the BIO NOTES at the end of the listing. The author of this diary is identified by name within both volumes; however her name and all information that identifies her family are being withheld from public listing out of respect for her many immediate living family members. A de-anonymized biography will be provided privately to serious buyers for research and provenance purposes. Our author is 41-years-old when she begins writing in 1997 and going on 43 when she makes her last entry in March of 2000. She titles her first diary Volume One and begins it on February 21 1997. She keeps it until Friday June 6 1997 writing near-daily and only on the right side of every page. In her first entry she lays out her purpose for journaling: This book is
about who I am in this moment
. Mostly it is about sexuality mine once lost and now found. It is about being a lesbian feeling wonderful about it and feel so relieved I cant believe it Feb 21 1997. Our author is educated intelligent and hopeful. She struggles with self-acceptance loneliness her sexual identity parenting a child who exhibited extremely challenging behaviours multiple addictions and mysteries from her past. While she is never explicit about her past we know she has a history of substance use and financial issues as well as challenges with her father and older brother. It is also implied that she had previously taken advantage of family members and possibly even stolen from them. Throughout the diaries one thing is clear: this author is a person who wants to live up to her potential be a good mother stay sober and be in control of her own life. She attends Alcoholics Anonymous AA meetings. She also attends the First Steps of Sarasota in their Choices program she goes to therapy and reflects that which she learns in her diary as she tries to understand her pain. Some excerpts from Volume One illustrate the tone of her entries:
I went to a gay dance in Venice with Sharon tonight and I cried all the way home. Am I grieving over old loss or making change or being afraid
I think that Im afraid of being alone
unloved
insignificant. I guess Ive always felt that way. Why so much more now I feel so much more peaceful so why do I still feel this incredible emptiness inside
I have always sought attention through my behaviours
its been physical hurting myself getting sick and now its through food deprivation and through spending money
maybe Im sad because Im afraid that even if I change all the behaviours the emptiness will never go away
April 25 1997.
I went to a gay AA meeting after group tonight which would have been good but I cried all the way through it. Im not sure why Im doing that these days
I need to be thankful more often
I could start with my son.and the family
April 14 1997.
I did have a huge fight with Dad. He wants $400 a month he told me he should be paid first that I was ruining his credit and that I had lied to him. I was really angry
I felt good that I did stand up for myself I went running after argument and that helped
I went to my Choices meeting
First Step. I love that meeting. I always come away feeling so good. 2 women asked me to sponsor them
I feel good about my sobriety April 17 1997. Despite her constant writing about wanting to overcome her demons and feel comfortable in her own skin our authors optimism of that first entry is repeatedly challenged. Some excerpts:
I spent more time alone this weekend and I was okay with that - really enjoyed going to Barnes & Noble and looking @ the Lesbian books. Went to church alone Church of Religious Science
. Told multiple friends I'm a lesbian. The women were very accepting John didnt say anything
March 3 1997. Right now I feel extremely anxious because of our living situation - I do not feel safe because our landlord has asked us to leave and we have not left. Tomorrow is my interview about a healthcare institution job - I really want this job. I feel as though things are beginning to turn
around
Thank you Lord for one more day and thank you for helping me to let go of my anger about the family March 11 1997. Thank you for this day God
my son and I had one of our more and more frequent fights. I did not handle myself well at all
I got very angry and.slapped him
have to learn
to step. Back and not be afraid of making and keeping rules. I felt so horrible April 10 1997. .I had a terrible day I got reprimanded at work for 3 medication errors
I feel as though Im not climbing out of this hole fast enough. I was furious with my son when I got home and found that he had not come home
April 15 1997
I
applied for a new job
Its lingerie modeling which I think now is sort of clean prostitution. I want to make a lot of money and thats all! .I want this job so I can pay off all my bills
send my son to camp get the Volvo fixed
April 21 1997
today I was terminated from healthcare institution for not correcting medication errors
. I wasnt careful enough
I dont feel scared just sad and pretty worthless as though everything Ive thought about myself
is true April 23 1997The first diary ends on a relatively hopeful note.
Ive been afraid to write because Im clearly at the end of the book and
Ive been incredibly depressed. I feel a little better I think the Prozac is working
With the exception of the loneliness and the bulimia Im doing better
I want to start going back to meetings
I think going to that gay dance scared me
I think its connected to my not going to meetings that fear of intimacy thing
June 6 1997. When we meet our author again in her second diary begun September 1 1999 her struggles are the same but her child is older and in trouble with the law financial strain becomes a more prominent and frequent concern shes unable to hold down a job housing is insecure and while she discusses her sexuality less frequently in Diary #2 it remains an undercurrent. Initially she is staying sober with the help of her sponsor about whom she writes almost obsessively until October 5th when she begins drinking again. Some excerpts give the sense of her lived experience as the millennium looms: We have just returned from the police station where my son was arrested on 3 felony counts and 3 misdemeanors and there are at least $6000 worth of charges. It was absolutely horrible. My sponsor and her husband came with us Thank God! .Im thrilled that at least the arrest part is over
Sept 1 1999.
I went to healthcare facility for my orientation and now Im ready to work. Im grateful to God for opportunities Sept 9.
I cancelled two orientations today and my shame feels really big
Sept 13
I went to see a therapist this morning. I liked her. I was pretty honest with her except about my sexuality
I told her that I was recovering for my anorexia and bulimia Im not really
my son and I will go together next week
Sept 18.
Tomorrow we have an appointment at the Department of Juvenile Justice it scares me to death
My son is a criminal
some of my goals: Plant a garden make my house pretty
go back to school get my masters write a book find a lover Sept 30.
I went back out as they say in the program. I started at now closed down mental health hospital today. Im quite excited about it
the benefits are by far the best Ive ever had. I feel okay. My alcoholism has reared its ugly head Oct 5. I think much of my self hatred and feeling of worthlessness is tied up with my older brother
Why doesnt it just heal After all Im 42 now Why does it hurt so much Oct 16. .The landlord is threatening to evict us if I dont pay by tomorrow. The water has been shut off for a week now and Im supposed to pay my sons lawyer $1000 tomorrow. I have 3 cigarettes and not enough gas to get to work tomorrow
Thank you God! I got gas and my son gave me half a pack of cigarettes. While that itself makes me feel awful desperation is desperation! Nov 4. The next day her landlord has begun the eviction process and on November 19 she moves in to her parents house with her son and states she is grateful to be sober. After a long and disappointing house hunt and judging by the nature of her writing - intermittent sobriety she and her son move to Arcadia Florida on December 31 1999 and she writes:
The millennium did not end well with the family as Dad was drunk and very belligerent with my son. I did not say a word while Dad was yelling at my son
at some point I want to talk to my father about his drinking
I am thrilled to be sober! ..
Im so disgusted with myself. A week ago today I got $1000 now its all gone! When will I ever change. I feel stupid worthless useless Jan 17 2000. .we went to Sarasota. I went to Rose Group which was about the First Step for the second night in a row. I picked up my blue chip for 90 days. It was a great meeting
Jan 25.
We talked about the topic at the Rose Group being sex and Valentines Day and how I couldnt change it because I didnt want that womans feelings her feelings mattered while mine didnt
I need to matter! Feb 19.
For me money is a lot like alcohol I am obsessed with it. I think about it constantly. When I have it I am happy when I dont I am miserable
March 26. Her final entry is on March 30 2000. An excerpt: Lord please help me to feel better about myself. Please help me to remember that I am loved. Please help me to pay the bills March 30. While we do know through historical records that our author was eventually married to a woman who was a proud member of the sober living community and lived into her early 60s we also know things likely didn't get much easier. Her son would sadly die less than six months after she made her final diary entry and her financial issues remained for many years. Taken together these diaries offer an unvarnished view of midlife lesbian identity formation at the edge of the twentieth centurywhere spirituality motherhood and addiction recovery intersect. They are especially valuable for their articulation of lesbian self-definition outside urban or academic milieus documenting the therapeutic and communal spaces AA meetings religious-based groups womens recovery programs through which one woman sought meaning dignity and love. Together the volumes stand as a rare primary-source record of working-class lesbian experience sobriety culture and maternal resilience in the years preceding the new millennium. BIO NOTES ANONYMIZED : The female author of these diaries was born in the mid-1950s. The daughter of a New Jersey businessman and a mother who was on her second marriage she grew up in an upper-middle-class household with two older half-siblings from her mothers first marriage and one older brother. She was raised in New Jersey before her parents relocation to Florida in the mid-1970s which occurred while she was away at college. She graduated from a respected northeastern university in the late 19070s. She was clearly a highly respected and busy member of the student body being President of the Student Alumni Association and a member of a society known as AMW the universitys highest non-academic honorary society offering invitations to female students of exemplary character excellence in service to the University and community
honor dignity willingness to accept responsibility responsible leadership and potential for continued contributions to the University. She gave birth to a son in the late 1980s while still living in Maine. He died tragically at age 13 shortly after her second diary concludes in a loss that shadows her later writings. Professionally she appears to have worked in nursing and lived most of her adult life in Florida later settling in the northeastern United States. She identified herself as lesbian in early 1997 and ultimately married a woman active in the sober-living community who served as a sponsor to others in recovery.

BOYNTON, MILO S
1855 Diary of a 21-Year-Old Student At Fairfield Academy Herkimer County New York: a Profound Spiritual Self-Examination Suggestive of Repressed Desire and Inner Conflict
Rodman New York Fairfield Herkimer County. Good with no dust jacket. 1855. Hardcover. On offer is the diary of a 21-year-old Rodman New York man who chronicles his tortured semester living and studying on campus at Fairfield Academy in Herkimer County before returning home and ultimately boarding a fishing vessel for the summerhis entries filled with self-hatred longing and a consuming desire to fulfill the expectations of his family faith and society. Our author Milo S. Boynton 18331857 was the son of prominent Rodman settlers Jonathan and Maria Kinney Boynton. Living and working on the Boynton farm he was sent to study at Fairfield Academy then often styled Fairfield Collegiate Institute at the age of twenty-one. Through his diary Milo reveals a life of unrelenting spiritual struggle. He writes daily of temptation failure and renewed vows to live wholly to the Lord. Although he never explicitly names the nature of his sins his language of crisis the Enemy of my soul a hell upon Earth and deliver me from this hellish influence points to a profound internal conflict that to modern readers suggests the torment of forbidden desire. A previous researcher has proposed that Boynton may have been struggling with his sexuality; while this cannot be confirmed the intensity of his guilt and the recurring theme of unnameable temptation render such a reading plausible. Read within the moral vocabulary of antebellum Protestantism the diary becomes both a religious testimony and a coded account of longing self-repression and shame. As many do Boynton begins the new year and semester with goals and hope: I find myself in Fairfield Collegiate Institute pondering over the Sciences of Mental Philosophy and Geometry and Grammar. The day has been a very fine one. I have made the Resolution to live this year wholly to the Lord. Although this day seems to be a bad beginning. I am determined to impose my time better in future. Studying has not gone first rate with me. The Evening has been dull. I have had some thoughts of Home Jan. 1 1855. By the very next day we glimpse a man already judging himself harshly and fighting unseen impulses: .My studise sic went rather hard my mind was penetrating but not interested. The Enemy has had more control over me than I should have allowed still strongly determined to keep my resolution. Attended my private division in Declination and Composition
Went to bed feeling not the best Jan. 2 1855. .I saw that there was a crisis at hand. For the Enemy of my soul had wrestled hard with me and had for some time had the advantage but thank the Lord that through his mercy I was enabled to cast my care upon him. I was enabled to see where the Enemy had laid his snare
. Jan. 3 1855. I felt very free in our Prayer meeting this afternoon; but for all of this I am not what I ought to be I do not love God as I should do not feel thankful as I should. At the meeting this evening I fear I was desirous to Please man more than God. O may the Lord deliver me from this evil heart. I know the way but it seems that I have become indifferent to God that he can not give me his glorious seal of Love. Here is a crisis I cannot get along with my studies without I have peace of mind and I have lost my zeal for the study O I must exorcise Faith in Christ Here Lord I give myself away it is all that I can do
Feb. 18 1855Boyntons anguish alternates with the everyday rhythms of seminary lifelectures prayer meetings illness among students and conversations with classmates and ministers. I rose at ten minutes before four o clock. I got my lesson in Geometry without trouble spent the time as usual until seven oclock then walked out with Chum had a pleasant walk
called on Mr. Chamberlain who is sick with the Fever his case is not very promising. There are about twenty cases of sickness in the Academy
Jan. 3 1855. Was awakened this morning Br. Cheeseman who came to prayer meeting it was not Late however
This forenoon Br. Vandercook preached
1st referred to the Children of Israel. Spoke of them wandering from God
. Spoke of sins separating men from God instance Adam. Man from his fellow man
Feb. 11 1855. .Quite a talk with Br. Yeomans and Cheeseman on the subject of holiness. And in particular reference to myself
I was not at that moment saved from all Sin. Told them some of my experience. Had quite a talk with Pr. Ferry on the same subject
Mar. 12 1855. The diary offers a vivid glimpse into Fairfield Academys student life and moral climate: rising before dawn strict rules public prayer and constant peer surveillance. .Tomorrow will seal my destiny in Geometry I suppose. I feel that I am too indifferent to the Lord for his great mercy. Mar. 15 1855. .My chum has decided to go home so I am to be left alone once more. Received Letter from Harrison to night have been writing one to Harriet. The evening has passed
my Lesson this day in moral science was upon Prayer Geometry Com Book 6th Latin
Feb. 23 1855. I did not wake up this morning until 20 minutes to 7
I shall have to take a black mark. I have had a clear head so that my recitations have not been so bad
Br. Spencer called at noon to get the chance of Chumming with me
. One of the rooms of the North Building caught fire this morning did not do much damage
Feb. 26 1855. As spring approaches Milo wrestles with whether to stay or return home. His indecision and dependence on male mentors for moral counselsuggests both spiritual and emotional dependency. .Received a letter from Melvin requesting me to come home .Talked with Br. Van Patten and Br. Van-k and prayed
feel it of importance to write more ideas which I hear
Presby-Church as a preparation for our work
what a smart converted young Lady can do
Mar. 16. .wrote a letter to Melvin stating my intentions to stay in this place an other Term. Consulted Br. Stebbins upon the subject advised me not to stay
spent an hour writing Compo. Called to Mr. Rayners
. At our Prayer Meeting this afternoon had a severe conflict with the adversary
I must spend more time meditating upon my future
Mar. 17. Ultimately he departs Fairfield in April 1855. His farewell to classmates is full of affection restraint and moral anxietytones familiar to scholars of 19th-century male friendship and its often-unspoken undercurrents of love. .Spent most of the afternoon in arranging my room and Packing my trunk
Have had some social converse with Br. Van-K and Br. Yeomans
The Principal was rather imprudent. Heard some very entertaining Declinations. The best Speakers were
Ingerson Stebbins Johnson and Niskem. Br. Johnson staid with me overnight Apr. 3 1855. .my preparations were soon made for my departure I could not feel that I was leaving so many friends never to see them again on the Shores of Time
I left Fairfield
in an open sleigh in company with Mrs. E. Blackstone M. Turner
Mas Williams and Br. Yeomans and Mr. Plant. We went to Little Falls
At Addams I bid Br. Yeomans farewell may the good Lord ever be with him
Apr. 4. Returning home he quickly plans to ship aboard the John Simmons fishing vessel: Made a call to Mr. OTassetts before breakfast was again permitted to bow around the family. After it seemed much different from before I left it. Made a call to Uncle Abner H and also to Mr. J. Fassetts was advised to take a trip on the Ocean Apr. 6. .wrote letter to Br. Vandercook informing him of my intentions to take a trip upon the watter
Went over to Charles Boyntons to get information concerning fathers cousin in Boston
Apr. 9. This day I shipped aboard of the John Simmons. Spent the day
helping fit up the ship. I wrote a letter to Br Vandercook and sent one to my Father. I weigh 126 pounds. I thank God for the peace of mind which I enjoy
Where shall I be in 5 months. O Lord bless me for Christ sake. Amen May 3. On his final night ashore Milo again voices the guilt of pleasure couched in the language of sin and deliverance: .I have bid farewell to Name for the next 4.5 months at last. Shall I ever forget this night. O what will poor human nature stoop to a hell upon Earth. O Lord grant to deliver me from this hellish influence. Oh that I loved the Lord none. I commit myself into his hands. I will strive to live more faithful by his grace
May 7. He sails from Provincetown on May 11. His later entries fewer and more pragmatic still echo the same duality of discipline and despair: .Another week has passed of my existence with all of its hardships. I have laid aside fishing for the purpose of giving my hands time to get well. The whole number of fish we have taken is 7337. I have caught 385. My health looks very prosperous but how little thankfulness is drawn out of my heart for it how unfaithful am I June 3. Returning from the expedition in October 1855 it is clear that Milo S. Boynton has not run away from his problems but is the same man he was when he departed: Land ho! Which proved to be a fact I had anticipated it so much that it did not meet my expectations. His last entry of May 18 1856 written after rereading his own diary closes with resolve and melancholy: .by the grace of God I hope to spend no more time in lamenting past sins
But I feel to resolve in the strength of God through Christ that
I will strive to do the present duty and trust the rest with the Lord. O Lord forbid I wander as
in a year to come if my life is spared as I have in the past year
keep me in the way for thy sons sake. Amen! Milo Boynton died less than a year later on March 28 1857 at only twenty-three. His diary stands as both a spiritual testimony and an interior portrait of a young man caught between devotion self-doubt and a yearning he could not name. To a modern reader it invites sensitive reflection on how mid-19th-century moral and gender codes shaped the ways inner life could or could not be spoken. Condition: Overall Good. Significant chipping to the leather spine some loosening of the string binding and an old watermark along the edges but the writing is very legible and the book is well-preserved. BIO NOTES: Fairfield Academy and Seminary: Founded in 1802 and incorporated in 1803 Fairfield Academy in Herkimer County New York evolved from a classical preparatory school into a co-educational seminary reflecting broader 19th-century educational reform. In 1839 its trustees reorganized it as the Fairfield Seminary legally comprising both a Classical Academy and a Female Collegiate Institutelanguage marking its broadened curriculum and inclusion of women Syracuse University Libraries n. D. . By the mid-1850s Fairfield Collegiate Institute signified the same institution under its reformed charter emphasizing co-education and professional teacher training aligned with antebellum reform movements Herbst 1989.
