The anthology includes a wide range of perspectives on queer relationships and families—there are stories on coming out, same-sex marriage, adopting, having biological kids, polyamorous relationships, families without kids, divorce, and dealing with the death of a spouse, as well as essays by straight writers about having a gay parent or child. These personal essays are by turns funny, provocative, and intelligent, but all are moving and honest. Including writers from across North America, this collection offers honest and moving real-life stories about relationships and creating families in the twenty-first century.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TouchWood Editions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47131237482736,"sku":"9781771510554","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781771510554_p0.jpg?v=1763708171","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781771510554","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
