The Times I Knew I Was Gay
Author: Eleanor Crewes
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1982147113
Category : Comics & Graphic Novels
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
Ellie always knew she was different. Contrary and creative, she wore black, obsessed over Willow in Buffy and somehow never really liked boys. As she grew, so did her fears and a deep sense of unbelonging. From her first communion to her first girlfriend via a swathe of self-denial, awkward encounters and everyday courage, Ellie's journey is told through tender and funny illustrations -- a self-portrait sketched out from the heart. This book reminds us that sexuality is not often determined by falling in love with others, but by coming to terms with oneself; that people must come out not just once but again and again. Full of vitality and love, it will ring true for anyone who took time to discover who they truly are.
