Exploring the vibrancy, diversity, spirit, truth and fun of the LGBTQI+ community away from assimilationist mainstream lore.

The first in a new series of books from publisher OutThere, Homoculture volume one trains a uniquely global lens on LGBTQI creativity and experience. Seriously queer, Homoculture seeks to reclaim from the assimilationist encroachments of mainstream lore a sacred space where we can explore the vibrancy, diversity, spirit, truth and fun wrapped up in our community’s rich difference. Not for nothing have many ancient and non-Western civilisations revered our non-normativity as a near-supernatural gift. We enthusiastically concur, and with this volume invite all queers, dykes, fags, bis, trans, inters, undecided and other to connect, commune and set free their highest selves.
