Really great introduction to some problematic queer figures, and what it means to be queer now and in the past.
Also provides lots of great resources if you want to do further reading.

Possibly the best or second best book I've read this year.

Do you like history? Do you love messy queers up to no good? (Don't give an affirmative answer on that second question... yet.)
It's not the representation we wanted, but it's the representation we... needed? Hey, we all have our flaws.
These queens had a lot, but some of them had good intentions, at least. From King James to Ronnie Kray, this is a good history lesson for the drama-loving gay.

This was really good and interesting- I really loved the introduction and the way the whole thing was framed, and also it taught me a lot that I didn’t know, while also showing WHY I didn’t know most of it. IMO some chapters aren’t as well paced/gripping as some others, but all in all I really enjoyed it. The chapters on Ronnie Kray, Margaret Mead, J. Edgar Hoover/Roy Cohn and Philip Johnson were the ones that stood out to me the most.
(Also I knew with 100% certainty that when I got to the Roy Cohn chapter there would absolutely be an Angels in America quote used, but it was still thrilling when it happened)
