Join TouchWood Editions and friends in celebrating the release of A FAMILY BY ANY OTHER NAME: EXPLORING QUEER RELATIONSHIPS Edited by Bruce Gillespie Tuesday, April 8 6:30pm Ben McNally Books 366 Bay Street Toronto With readings by Kate Barker. S. Bear Bergman, Dorianne Emmerton, Bruce Gillespie, Max Mosher, and Maya Saibil. At no other time in history have lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) relationships and families been more visible or numerous. A FAMILY BY ANY OTHER NAME recognizes and celebrates this advance by exploring what family means to people today. The anthology includes a wide range of perspectives on queer relationships and families, as well as essays by straight writers about having a gay parent or child. These personal essays are by turns funny, provocative, and intelligent, but all are moving and honest. The fifth book in a series of books about the twenty-first-century family, "A Family by Any Other Name" follows "How to Expect What You’re Not Expecting," "Somebody’s Child," "Nobody’s Mother," and "Nobody’s Father," all essay collections that challenge readers to re-examine traditional definitions of family.
