Join us for our monthly community group where we discuss gay books, gay writing, and how it has impacted our lives.
About this Event

Welcome to Queer Men for Queer Literature at Lavender Menace!

A friendly monthly discussion group about gay books and gay writing, for people who enjoy reading and talking about how gay writing has impacted our lives. We meet on the second Sunday of every month and we pick a different theme/topic each time.

As International Men's Day is coming up this month, in November we'll be discussing the queer literary men (both authors and characters) that have shaped our concept of masculinity.

You don't need to prepare anything in advance, but you're welcome to bring along a text or extract from a piece of published gay writing you feel a connection with.

These sessions are for anyone who identifies as a gay, bi, or queer man and wants to discuss books. Our events are trans-inclusive: trans men, trans mascs, and non-binary folks welcome.

Booking

Booking in advance is essential as places are limited so, if you are unable to attend, please let us know as soon as possible so we can offer your place to someone else.

Venue & Accessibility
The event is located at the Lavender Menace Queer Books Archive in Edinburgh Palette. There is information on how to get to us on public transport and by car, along with access information, on our location & accessibility page.
