An insightful collection . . . The stylistically diverse contributions are linked by a preoccupation with the question of whether increased mainstream acceptance of LGBTQ+ people must come at the expense of what makes the community unique. It’s an illuminating snapshot of the changing face of queerness. * PUBLISHERS WEEKLY * “[An] exciting anthology . . . The book certainly lives up to its title . . . The entries are compelling enough to enjoy back-to-back-to-back, but they are also worth savoring. . . Fitzgibbon wisely juxtaposes text and images, so the flow of the book never feels too dense. There are several memorable essays and interviews that are original to this volume . . .also [including] some superb fiction . . . [and] brief entries featuring key queer voices in contemporary gay literature. It is valuable that these entries are now available to reach a wider audience. A Great Gay Book leaves readers wanting more.” * PHILADELPHIA GAY NEWS *
