In an age of declarative confidence, this collection, with its Eastern-inflected, soft-falling hesitations and divinations, opens up a world of gentle possibilities, an alternative way of Being in the natural world: it's a collection which suggests that, although for many the world is not experienced this way, this world can be: So.
Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender writers reclaim the headlines in this dark, witty and refreshingly uncensored collection of short stories. They introduce us to characters you'd never guess lived next to you: stalkers, Jesus freaks, mermaids and vampires. They show us how easy it is to develop an unhealthy interest in young boys, older women, meat cleavers, vaginas and jazz. And they show us how to survive Gender Dysphoria, HIV, abusive relationships and Lesbian Bed Death. This is Sex and the City meets Queer as Folk and everything in between.
