These stories tell about woe and worry, longing and belonging, rejection and inclusion. The stories embrace layers of gender and identity. They lay bare the realities which shape queer lives. The nine authors have embarked on a joint transnational writing journey, connecting different European cultures. They spinned Diskokugel and unpacked regalos. They wrote this book in one intense week of encounter and exchange in a German forest. In their stories they forge their experiences into exciting narratives. That makes this book relevant, revealing and unputdownable.
