Tekst achterflap

Through the lens of an outsider, the gay world can seem like a kaleidoscope of colour, fun and frivolity, but underneath lurk shame, heartache and sadness. The stories in this book are of men who have faced their fears and come out of the closet to live full and happy lives. Some crept out, some came out running! The stories range from the time when it was illegal to be homosexual, during the AIDS epidemic, through to celebrating marriage equality and increased acceptance in society. Reading these pages, you'll gain insight into what it's really like to belong to a minority group experiencing discrimination and facing struggles that no heterosexual person ever has to endure. Buckle up - it's a rollercoaster of emotions throughout which brave men are willing to open their hearts and wounds as they reflect on a life they didn't choose, and often fought against, emerge on the other side, triumphant!
