This collection of 25 personal essays from a small press in Portland, Oregon, features many Portland-area and Oregon writers, including Ariel Gore, A. M. O’Malley, Judith Barrington, Ben
Anderson-Nathe, Sailor Holladay, and Mel Wells. The contributors, many of whom live in rural, conservative areas, reflect on the joys, hardships, and complexities of gay and lesbian families
and parenting in an era when, despite the legalization of gay marriage, homophobia is still entrenched in our culture. Annotation ©2015 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
