Special Edition: Joy//Us - Poems of Queer Joy

Joy//Us was published to coincide with International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia – because how better to fight hate than with joy?

Alongside the more immediately obvious causes, joy is found in everything from a good haircut to quality bread, by way of flintknapping, friendship, community, allyship and pop culture.

Enjoy readings from editors Cherry Potts and Jeremy Dixon and contributors Abhi, Alex Williams, Dean Atta, Desree, Elizabeth Gibson, JP Seabright, Joshua Jones, Rick Dove, Tom McLaughlin and P Burton-Morgan.
