{"product_id":"the-queer-bookshelf","title":"The Queer Bookshelf","description":"\u003cp\u003eWe are in the middle of a vibrant renaissance of queer writing. But LGBTQ+ writers, characters and readers have been here since the beginning - quietly, defiantly, and persistently telling their stories - if you know where to look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Queer Bookshelf is your guide to this essential queer history, and to its contemporary flourishing. Drawing on the author’s own journey as a queer reader and book club host, and packed with recommendations from authors, booksellers, and book lovers around the world, The Queer Bookshelf is a celebration of the books that have helped generations of LGBTQ+ people find themselves on the page.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom literary fiction to memoir, to crime, fantasy, and young adult, and even cowboy romance, The Queer Bookshelf is a warm, entertaining companion for anyone beginning or deepening their own queer reading adventure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“The Queer Bookshelf is a joyful compendium of our literary heritage, and I’m honoured my own books are featured. It’s a fun way to fill the holes in my intellectual armour about the many courageous writers who wrote about the love that dared not speak its name long before me. My one caveat- my reading list is now a doozy!”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardback \u003cbr\u003eImprint: Scribe Publications\u003cbr\u003ePublished: June 2026\u003cbr\u003eISBN: 9781917189071\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Layla McCay","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56606642372774,"sku":"9781917189071","price":48.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0670\/1465\/6166\/files\/THE_QUEER_BOOKSHELF_LAYLA_MCCAY.webp?v=1780974381","url":"https:\/\/enamouredbooks.co.nz\/products\/the-queer-bookshelf","provider":"Enamoured Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
