Love That Dares: Letters of LGBTQ+ Love & Friendship Through History

by Rachel Smith Author, Barbara Vesey Author and Mark Gatiss Author

This book collects intimate and inspiring letters revealing some of history’s greatest queer love stories. A good love letter can transcend time and reassure us that today’s agony and ecstasy have been shared by past lovers. This book features a wonderful selection of surviving letters between lovers and friends, confidants, and companions.

Alongside famous names, lesser-known lovers’ beautifully written letters weave a narrative of queer love through the centuries, using romantic, funny, and poignant words.
