In 1970, Midwood, a branch of Tower Books, also published a novel set in the prison, Inferno of Women by Anita Palmer. Truthfully, Ms Palmer was Neil Derrick, but the novel is a fairly accurate picture of lesbian activity inside the Women's House of Detention. After he lost his sight, Derrick collaborated with his partner, Edward Field, on several novels, the most notable 'The Villagers' under another of his many pseudonyms, Bruce Elliot, a four-generation fictional history of Greenwich Village that features a hot scene between two women in 19th century New York.
