Coming Out Under Fire: The History of Gay Men and Women in World War Two by Allan Bérubé

5.0

Wow! This was such an interesting read. By moments heartbreaking, most of the time rage-inducing, but always fascinating.

The author highlights the influence that the military had in the treatment of queer people by EEUU's society. Incredibly well-documented, filled with quotes that brought the protagonists' voices to the fore, this is such a meaningful document...

Listening to this book, to all those experiences, to all that real people who lived through them makes you really understand what was going on.

If you are interested in queer history, you simply cannot not to read this book.
