Description

The winning entries from an international competition to capture the best of queer writing from around the globe.

Following the critically acclaimed Queer Life, Queer Love comes the second anthology, championing the fiction, poetry, memoir, essay, and flash fiction of new and emerging writers alongside established authors.

The anthology will comprise 30 pieces of writing, the winning entries from an international competition to capture the best of queer writing today. This is writing that explores characters, stories and experiences beyond the mainstream. Celebrating the fascinating, the forbidden, the subversive, and even the mundane, but in essence, the view from outside.
