Queer Notions



Random number between 1 and 222, page 151 of Queer Notions: A Fabulous Collection of Gay and Lesbian Wit and Wisdom (compiled by David Blanton, published by Running Press, 1996) contains quote attributed to singing duo Romanovsky and Phillips, part of Chapter 10, "Life in Wartime."

From Blanton's Preface: "Breadth, depth, wisdom, pathos -- all of these, of course, I found in abundance. And in a community that prides itself on a well-turned phrase, there was no lack of wit, subtlety, arched eyebrow, and irony."

This month in liwaliw Pages, I pre-selected titles from my personal library for the celebration of June LGBT Pride. Love wins.
