Samenvatting:

A unique and compelling collection of memoir and personal stories by Arab LGBTQ+ writers edited by the Arab-Australian journalist, Elias Jahshan.



This ground-breaking anthology features the compelling and courageous memoirs of eighteen queer Arab writers - some internationally bestselling, others using pseudonyms. heart-warming connections and moments of celebration sit alongside essays exploring the challenges of being LGBTQ+ and Arab. From a military base in the Gulf to loving whispers caught between the bedsheets; from touring overseas as a drag queen to a concert in Cairo where a crowd of thousands greet the rainbow flag, this collection celebrates the true colours of a vibrant Arab queer experience.
