Living Out: Gay and Lesbian Autobiographies David Bergman, Joan Larkin, and Raphael Kadushin, Founding Editors This award-winning series aims to represent the full range of LGBT autobiography. It encompasses a diversity of autobiographies that cross all ethnic and national boundaries—from new autobiographies by fresh voices to memoirs by established contemporary writers, from posthumous and historically important autobiographies to reprints of classic autobiographies. Dedicated to embracing the full range of LGBT experience, Living Out recognizes that autobiography is a crucial gay genre—an essential way of reclaiming individual lives and telling a larger, collective story. Please send inquiries to UW Press Editor in Chief Dan Crissman. See also the LGBT books we publish.

“Bronson Lemer doesn’t just ‘write’ essays, he excavates them—digging deep within himself and the wider world to bring readers toward greater truths.” Wolf Act
“Wolf Act moves in the way a body does, an evocative intertwining of memories through the complexities of deep familial love, the alienating potential of religious orthodoxy, the thrilling and shameful experiences of adolescence, and the search for love (including self-love) in a homophobic culture that narrowly defines lovability.” The Long Hallway
“An exquisite book: atmospheric, metaphysical, transformative. Larson provides an extended meditation on menace, and what it means to walk beside it and not be destroyed by it. I’m enthralled by Larson’s willingness to acknowledge how the cruelty of his environment has shaped him, and his compassion and respect for his younger self feels singular.” Recent and Backlist Click the icon below the book image to add the title to your shopping cart.
