Queer Beyond London : Lgbtq Stories from Four English Cities Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

With a foreword by Andrew McMillanAn alternative celebration of LGBTQ history in Britain, offering tales of queer life from four cities. When it comes to queer British history, London has stolen the limelight.

But what about the millions of queer lives lived elsewhere?In Queer beyond London, two leading LGBTQ historians take you on a journey through four English cities from the sixties to the noughties, exploring the northern post-industrial heartlands and taking in the salty air of the seaside cities of the south. Covering the bohemian, artsy world of Brighton, the semi-hidden queer life of military Plymouth, the lesbian activism of Leeds and the cutting-edge dance and drag scenes of Manchester, they show how local people, places and politics shaped LGBTQ life in each city, forging vibrant and distinctive queer cultures of their own. -- .
