(A) Queer Book Club

A virtual book club for members of the LGBTQ+ community 

We meet the first Thursday of every month at 6 PM to discuss books by queer and trans authors across a variety of genres. Connect with fellow readers, share your thoughts, and discover great stories in a welcoming and inclusive space!

This month's book is "Queers at the table" edited by Alex D. Ketchum & Megan J. Elias. "Food has long played an important role in queer culture. Lesbian- and queer women-run feminist restaurants, cafes, and coffeehouses have been safe spaces for queer and trans folk where gender norms can be challenged and where female authority is legitimized. During the AIDS epidemic, gay men and their allies centered food as an expression of collective care for those who needed it most. And queer and trans folk have asserted themselves in a restaurant culture largely controlled by white cisgender men. Queers at the Table celebrates the various intersections between queers and food. In its essays, comics, and recipes, the book shows how queer food fosters connections, defies norms, honours legacies, and creates community." - from the publisher
