A unique anthology bringing together stories of queer life from
international playwrights, these seven plays showcase the dazzling
multiplicity of queer narratives across the globe: the absurd, the
challenging, and the joyful. From the legacy of colonialism in
India to the farcical bureaucracy of marriage law in Kosovo; from a
school counsellor in Taiwan coming out as HIV+, to coming of age in
an Israel-Palestine coexistence camp, this is a genre-spanning
collection of global writing. Contempt by Danish Sheikh (India) 55
