Queer Ukraine

[profiterole_reads]

Queer Ukraine: An Anthology of LGBTQI+ Ukrainian Voices During Wartime edited by the DVIJKA Collective was excellent.

This contains 12 texts: essays on queerness in Ukraine and on transness through Ukrainian History, testimonies and poems about the war. (It's hard to say without author bios, but I feel like women are under-represented.)

Proceeds from the sales of this book go to a selection of charities supporting LGBTQI+ people in Ukraine. The list is periodically reviewed so that funds go to where they're most sorely needed.

I already used my request this month, but I'll ask my library to get a copy.
