'An intersectional and insightful journey through the nuances of the queer experience' Munroe BergdorfToday, there are more options on offer to LGBTQ+ people in the West than ever before. But increased acceptance can be complicated. In Queer Intentions, Amelia Abraham goes on a thought-provoking journey to ask what these complications might be. With curiosity and humour, she questions the pros and cons of marriage at Britain's first same-sex wedding, explores the explosive popularity of drag at the world's biggest drag convention in LA, and investigates the corporatization of Pride by joining parades across Europe. She also meets trans activists in New York and Syrian refugees in Turkey's underground LGBTQ+ scene as she asks why equality still doesn't extend to everyone. Taking in the breadth of contemporary queer life - and the issues at its heart - Queer Intentions is the ultimate exploration of the joys and pains of being LGBTQ+ at a time when queer culture has never been so mainstream.'A landmark exploration into what it means to be queer today' DAZED'A brilliantly vibrant and hopeful book - entertaining and relatable' Sophie Mackintosh, author of The Water Cure 'Heartfelt, intellectual, soul searching' Michelle Tea'This book will resonate with a new generation of queer people and all those who seek to be their allies - a brilliant book' Owen Jones von Abraham, Amelia
