Overview

A memoir of poems and art, Coming Out Party chronicles poet and author Rebecca Bendheim's queer coming of age journey -- from first crushes and toxic homo-erotic friendships, to coming out and secret flings, to finding queer community and falling in love for the first time. Coming Out Party is a fierce, funny, and deeply personal celebration of the strength it takes to break down the protective walls we've built-and embrace our truest selves.

"""Poignant, painful, joyful... real. This nuanced, yet accessible, collection of poetry is a gift of considerations; a necessity of heart.""-K.A. Holt, author of Redwood & Ponytail"

Author Information

Rebecca Bendheim writes books, poetry, and too many text messages in a row. She earned her B.S. from Vanderbilt University and her MFA in Writing for Children and Young Adults at the Vermont College of Fine Arts. She types poems with the nationally-renowned Typewriter Rodeo poetry troupe, teaches middle school English, and records weekly radio poems for Texas NPR. Rebecca lives in Austin with her girlfriend and their spirited orange cat. Sarah Rosa Glickman is an artist living and working in Durham, NC. Her art is deeply rooted in celebrating both the simplicity and complexity of being human. She focuses on the power of distinct lines and bold color in her constantly evolving exploration of emotion, nature, and just what it means to be alive. She hopes her work empowers others with the same strength and perspective it gives her. More at www.artbysrg.com
