This book is very close to my heart and resonated with me in a intensely visceral way. It is so crucial to have these stories told. Warning that this book is very triggering.

Crash reviewed In a queer time and place by Judith Halberstam
Review of 'In a queer time and place' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
Incredible and insightful. first chapter and the last chapter felt the most important and strongest! If you are interested in queer theory and/or art, this is a must read. Halberstam points to some key components of queerness that are so often overlooked and not spoken about (the impacts of space and temporality and locale). So good.
