Synopsis

The breakthrough queer anthology that first presented the works of Michelle Tea, Ali Liebegott, Marci Blackman, Trebor Healey, and many other currently acclaimed writers


"Filled with loss, grief, and the spirit to endure, this is a welcome addition to gay and lesbian literature." -Booklist


"...An entire volume dedicated to stories of sexual identity that weren't visible or understood before, let alone appreciated." -Susie Bright


Beyond Definition confronts questions of sexuality and identity in a groundbreaking collection of dynamic work by established and emerging LGBTQ writers from the San Francisco Bay Area. Urgent and significant issues are explored through short stories and narrative poetry, including coming out to one's parents, transgenderism, and coping with the loss of a loved one to AIDS, among other contemporary topics.


A native of Ohio, editor Marci Blackman is an African American award-winning queer writer. Editor Trebor Healey is a San Francisco native, and has received numerous literary awards since Beyond Definition was published.
