This Arab Is Queer: An Anthology by LGBTQ+ Arab Writers

by Elias Jahshan (Editor) - £12.99  Saqi Books (2022)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9780863564789 | ISBN 10: 086356478x

This ground-breaking anthology features the compelling and courageous memoirs of eighteen queer Arab writers – some internationally bestselling, others using pseudonyms. Here, we find heart-warming connections and moments of celebration alongside essays exploring the challenges of being LGBTQ+ and Arab.
 
From a military base in the Gulf to loving whispers caught between the bedsheets; and from touring overseas as a drag queen to a concert in Cairo where the rainbow flag was raised to a crowd of thousands, this collection celebrates the true colours of a vibrant Arab queer experience.
