SUMMARY:Cruising into Age—Getting Older Queerly
DESCRIPTION:How do queers age gracefully — and queerly? How do they deal with traumatic pasts\, which sometimes leave painful personal and physical legacies\, and how do they do so while keeping desire and intimacy alive? Prolific queer author Jonathan Alexander discusses his two new Fall books\, the critical memoirs Stroke Book: The Diary of a Blindspot (Fordham University Press) and Bullied: The Story of an Abuse (Punctum) with fellow queer writer Alex Espinoza\, author of Cruising: An Intimate History of a Radical Pastime. \nRegistration on Eventbrite is required in order to receive the Zoom link ON THE DAY OF THE EVENT. \nClick here to register\nThis event is free\, but donations to support the Bureau’s work are always welcome! \nAnother great way to support the Bureau is to purchase books from us! \nClick on the following links to place an order: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \nThank you for supporting the Bureau by purchasing books from us! \n  \nTo purchase Jonathan Alexander’s Bullied: The Story of an Abuse please visit the publisher’s website: punctumbooks.com. \n  \nJonathan Alexander is a writer living in Southern California where he is Chancellor’s Professor of English at the University of California\, Irvine.
