Description:

Chile Wakes Up to the Real Gabriela Mistral Gabriela Mistral spent most of her adult life in a loving relationship with another woman, Doris Dana, who was officially her companion, secretary, and finally the executor of her estate. Drs. Eliot and Dunham to the Rescue Eliot and Dunham met in 1910 and would remain together “until death did them part” in 1969. It’s impossible to separate their 59-year relationship from the careers they built, even though they decided early on to guard against allowing their scientific careers to interfere with their personal relationship. Hervé Guibert’s ‘Dreadful Books’             Guibert’s lifelong impulse to tell his personal truth, however dreadful, drives the short stories that span his short career. These are the works that have been selected and translated for Hervé Guibert, Written in Invisible Ink: Selected Stories. The Pleasures of Sadness Lie With Me, by Philippe Besson, has been called “the French Brokeback.” In fact, according to an interview he gave to The New Yorker, when Brokeback Mountain first came out, Besson was living in New York next door to a movie theater showing the film. He went back to see the movie every day for a week.

October 16, 2020 Influential LGBTQ Playwrights  By Laura MorenoIn the words of Broadway legend Terrence McNally, who died this year of coronavirus in New York City, [Plays] provide a forum for the ideas and feelings that can lead a society to decide to heal and change itself. So perhaps it s no surprise that many of most influential playwrights are LGBTQ. Here are seven of them.More October 1, 2020 A Book Is Still Your Best Pandemic Friend By Bruce SkeaffIs a good book still your best pandemic friend to take your mind off all this? I think so. In fact, I’d say more so than six months ago. More September 11, 2020 ‘Comfort with’ versus ‘Acceptance of’ LGBT People By Laura MorenoA 2019 GLAAD study that found that people 18 to 34 years old are less comfortable than other groups in personal situations involving people of different gender orientations. But here’s why jumping to the conclusion that this indicates eroding LGBT acceptance is a misrepresentation of the data.More November 4, 2020 The Corpse, and the Living, at a Funeral By Tom McCarronI entered the church and sat in a pew at the very back of the church. I listened to the sermon and the eulogy, and I looked around and saw groups of old men talking and looking at me. The service was over and it was time to go up to the coffin and pay one’s respects to the deceased and to her children. I stood up and thought, if those old hayseeds want a show, I feel prepared to give them one.More October 27, 2020 Taking the Secret Out of ‘Open Secret’ By Terry BoyleMy father, a very pious Catholic, never suspected that one of his five sons might be gay. The closest we came to having a discussion on the subject happened quite accidentally. We were driving downtown, when all of a sudden, he pointed at a man walking down the street and said, “See him? He’s a wee bit gay.” When I later told this story to my partner, he said: “You should have asked him, which bit of the man was gay?”More October 20, 2020 Upstate New York Meets Puerto Rico By Ted SimoninIt’s more important than ever to appreciate and embrace people’s differences. Forget skin color and birthday parties. If your family is as strong as an army, that’s a unit I want to be a part of, and I truly wouldn’t change a thing.More Short ReviewsShort reviews of The Orange Spong; Let Them Eat Cake; and Moonflower, Nightshade, All the Hours of the DayRead moreHow to Mobilize L.A.            Morris Kight lived a life dedicated to the biblical entreaty “Justice, justice shall you pursue.” His devotion to the value of every individual is inspiring, especially in times such as ours.

It should bring attention to a long-neglected figure and his writings.Read moreMatching BaggageMemorial has a lot going for it. Composed as a non-chronological patchwork of short paragraphs and chapters, the novel is less punchy and more downbeat than the short story collection. Washington has described his approach to fiction as “traumedy.”Read moreMirror, MirrorIn Fairest, [Talusan] describes in unflinching terms her experiences as a member of multiple minorities that don’t always intersect. Her self-depictions are often brutal, as she doesn’t shy away from describing her own internalized classism and racism.Read moreEssaysBaron von Steuben’s Secret Heroism            Baron Friedrich Wilhelm Steuben joined the Prussian army when he was seventeen, eventually becoming an aide-de-camp to Frederick the Great, who was also rumored to have had homosexual leanings. (The conversation of Frederick’s inner court circle was peppered with homoerotic banter, and his residence included a Friendship Temple celebrating the homoerotic attachments of Greek antiquity).Book ReviewInterpreting Trans, 19th-century Style            In her new book Before Trans, Rachel Mesch adroitly walks the methodological tightrope of examining historical characters through the lens of transgender analysis, yet accepting their gender originality. Her writing is theoretically savvy without being academically ponderous.EssaysDrs.
