Gay Giant
In this heartwarming story of growing up gay in the 90s, author Gabriel Ebensperger shares his fears of being discovered and reveals the inner life of a queer child in an extremely heteronormative culture. From singing on the playground instead of playing soccer to playing with Barbies instead of Legos, Ebensperger shows how his preferences as a kid were disdained by society and how the acceptance he was seeking ultimately had to come from himself. A coming-of-age story that will be relatable to anyone who ever hated themselves because society told them to, or felt out of place in a world full of prejudice and homophobia.
