Join any Pride march and you are likely to see a glorious display of papier-mâché unicorn heads trailing sequins, drag queens wearing mermaid tails and more fairy wings than you can shake a trident at. But these are not just accessories: they are queer symbols with historic roots. Queer as Folklore is an exhilarating journey across centuries and continents which reveals the unsung heroes and villains of storytelling, magic and fantasy.

The Einstein Intersection won the Nebula Award for best science fiction novel of 1967. The surface story tells of the problems a member of an alien race, Lo Lobey, has assimilating the mythology of Earth, where his kind have settled among the leftover artifacts of humanity. The deeper tale concerns, however, the way those who are "different" must deal with the dominant cultural ideology. The tale follows Lobey's mythic quest for his lost love, Friza. In luminous and hallucinated language, it explores what new myths might emerge from the detritus of the human world....

Apesar dos avanços das lutas feministas por igualdade, o conceito de gênero–uma das principais categorias políticas da atualidade e um termo que mobiliza debates acalorados–ainda gera muitas dúvidas e é frequentemente mal interpretado.

Si può essere persone femministe e cattoliche nello stesso tempo? Michela Murgia, cattolica, pensa di sí. E questo audace pamphlet, colto e popolare, sfida il senso comune, e con lucidità e ironia ci spiega perché. «Vorrei capire, da femminista, se la fede cristiana sia davvero in contraddizione con il nostro desiderio di un mondo inclusivo e non patriarcale, o se invece non si possa mostrare addirittura un’alleata.

Come e quando ci si scopre gay e lesbiche? Cosa vuol dire omosessualità nelle altre culture? E cosa accade nelle specie animali? Se nell'Ottocento l'omosessualità era ancora considerata una malattia, oggi viene definita una variante dello sviluppo, ed è diventata una condizione sempre più visibile nelle società moderne.

The most important issue in a gay man’s life is not “coming out”, but coming to terms with the invalidating past. Despite the progress made in recent years, many gay men still wonder, “Are we better off?” The byproduct of growing up gay in a straight world continues to be the internalization of shame, rejection, and anger - a toxic cocktail that can lead to drug abuse, promiscuity, alcoholism, depression, and suicide.

Años antes del éxito en redes sociales, Victoria Volkova enfrentó situaciones complejas: bullying, limitaciones, incomprensión y señalamientos de una sociedad que malmira la diversidad, que rechaza a las personas trans y que nos limita a todxs. En su primer libro, Victoria se sincera respecto a vivencias y emociones complejas al ser una mujer trans, que a lo largo de sus veintiocho años ha vivido en carne propia. Cada una de esas experiencias conlleva aprendizajes que Victoria quiere compartir en estas páginas.

The Non-Monogamy Playbook is the handbook for anyone curious about consensual non-monogamy: polyamory and open relationships. The Non-Monogamy Playbook shows us that there's joy in having multiple people in your life (platonic, sexy, romantic), but with each connection there is added vulnerability. This is the ultimate modern guide to non-monogamy, helping you create confident, healthy relationships.

If you are queer or transgender, you may feel like you have to hide certain aspects of yourself in order to "blend into" society. You may even feel ashamed of your differences. You aren't alone. Many queer and trans people feel disconnected from their authentic selves, or have internalized negative beliefs. So, how can you fully embrace the beauty of who you are?

Love, Expanded is not a book about suffering, though the challenges queer people face are everywhere and real. Quietly radical, it is a guide for what non-traditional relationships can look like in all their myriad forms, and a source of advice from aromantic and asexual people on how to form them. It's about opening up opportunities for expanded love, for everyone. It's for the sake of single people struggling to own a home, for those who feel that friendship is less prominent in their lives than they would like; for people who want more social support for lives lived happily single.

Esto no es un libro. Es un interruptor. Un dispositivo que corta la corriente. Y que a la vez permite que algo se ponga en marcha, que algo se encienda. Me gustaría que la lectura de este libro supusiera un "clic", un chispazo que interrumpiera una cadencia de mierda, una bajada...

In recent years, "white feminism" and girlboss feminism have taken a justified beating. We know that leaning in won't make our jobs any more tolerable and that white women have proven to be, at best, unreliable allies. But in a time of rising fascism, ceaseless attacks on reproductive justice, and violent transphobia, we need to reckon with what Western feminism has wrought if we have any hope of building the feminist world we need.

Too many popular histories seek to establish heroes, pioneers and martyrs but as Huw Lemmey and Ben Miller argue, the past is filled with queer people whose sexualities and/or dastardly deeds have been overlooked. We all remember Oscar Wilde, but who speaks for Bosie? What about those 'bad gays' whose un-exemplary lives reveals more than we might expect? Part-revisionist history, part-historical biography and based on the hugely popular podcast series, Bad Gays subverts the notion of gay icons and queer heroes.

In this groundbreaking work, Sara Ahmed demonstrates how queer studies can put phenomenology to productive use. Focusing on the “orientation” aspect of “sexual orientation” and the “orient” in “orientalism,” Ahmed examines what it means for bodies to be situated in space and time. Bodies take shape as they move through the world directing themselves toward or away from objects and others. Being “orientated” means feeling at home, knowing where one stands, or having certain objects within reach. Orientations affect what is proximate to the body or what can be reached.

All too often society issues dire warnings about the risks of living single. But is finding a spouse or romantic partner really a requirement for a full life? In Single at Heart, Dr. Bella DePaulo speaks on behalf of the millions of people who are drawn to single life for all it has to offer and shares what it means to not just be happy being single for a time, but to be happy being single always.
