Even before trans bathroom bans, queer book bans, healthcare bans forcing rainbow families to cross state lines, many of us in the community have been on the run...
These are the letters to the places we carry within us, places left behind - homes, cities, states, and countries - even the people and bodies where we've found a place to rest, or a place to flee.
Edited by Lamda Literary award finalist Lexie Bean, and replete with moments of grief, longing, anger, and satisfaction, this urgent and raw collection is a testimony of continued queer and and trans existence and a powerful imagined landscape of rendezvous and reconciliation with places that have been lost.
Written with immense beauty and devastating power, this anthology brings together the letters and poetry of queer and trans authors writing to places and things they've had to leave behind. The collection includes the work of 70+ authors, and is edited by Lamda Literary award finalist Lexie Bean
