Our contributions to the world of books on gender and sexuality!
Anthology titled Queer Potli: Memories, Imaginations and
Re-imaginations of Urban Queer Spaces in India – published by Queer Ink; edited
by Pawan Dhall, Varta Trust; August 2016; Rs.199; available for purchase at queer-ink.com/product/queer-potli/
in e-book format (ePub and Kindle versions).
Synopsis: What happened in Voodoo, Mumbai’s first gay bar
and nightclub? How did daily commute in a crowded local train between Barasat
and Kolkata shape someone’s queer experience? Does ‘home’ truly signify safety
for a queer woman? Has the virtual queer space transcended class divisions?
This anthology explores these questions, amongst many others, through personal
and shared experiences of love and loss, some nostalgic and some full of hope,
some humorous and some educational. The anthology brings together a uniquely
diverse blend of experiences that explores human stories, giving us a peek into
the urban spaces we occupy.
