Queer (Picador Books)

There is a lot of hate that comes with being queer. There is that hate we all know, that hate that radiates from society, from those decent and upstanding citizens, senselessly hating, hoping you would die a miserable death, for no other reason but for being queer. But, there is, arguably, hate much closer to a queer, hate that penetrates to the core of every queer's soul. Yes, yes, that self-hatred, a demon that will let you justify the hatred coming from the other on the basis of your own self-hatred. Queer fights a vicious battle, but it is only won once the enemy within is defeated.
