LIVING YOUR BEST QUEER LIFE – MEMOIR

Manboobs: A Memoir of Musicals, Visas, Hope, and Cake is KOMAIL AIJAZUDDIN’s story of courage, love, and bravery. Growing up in Pakistan, ashamed of his body and knowing he was different, he believed his only chance at happiness existed in a gay-friendly America. But after arriving in a post-9/11 world, he was forced to navigate prejudice and self-doubt in his quest for a meaningful life. In his part memoir-in-essays, part cultural critique Mean Boys: A Personal History, queer Chinese American writer GEOFFREY MAK speaks of boys wielding cruelty to claim their place in the pecking order. As such, they are the emblem of our image-obsessed society and an era always thirsting for the next edgy thing, even at our peril. GREG MARSHALL’s Leg: The Story of a Limb and the Boy Who Grew from It is a funny and insightful memoir of a singular childhood. It is also a unique examination of what it means to transform when there are parts of yourself you can’t change, a moving portrait of a family in crisis, and a tale of resilience of spirit.
