It was an absolute pleasure to work on this edited collection with @RoisinFlood and all the wonderful contributors, and a privilege to launch it, hot off the press, at Lesbian Lives last night.
So thrilled that my new co-edited book with @AmyToothMurphy Queering Desire is now out in the world! Just in time for a book launch at the Lesbian Lives conference tonight. Check out the cover featuring a painting by amazing artist Sadie Lee. #QueeringDesire
In case you missed it, you can watch our recent roundtable Bog Jobs: Queer History in the Photography of Phil Polglaze (7 March 2024) below.

Some thirty years after their initial creation, Phil Polglaze's recently resurfaced photographs of London 'cottages' and cruising venues – now held in the Museum of London’s collection – make for an exceptional archive that is being seen by the public for the very first time.
