Every queer person lives with the trauma of AIDS, and this plays out intergenerationally. Usually we hear about two generations - the first, coming of age in the era of gay liberation, and then watching entire circles of friends die of a mysterious illness as the government did nothing to intervene. And now we hear about younger people growing up with effective treatment and prevention available, unable to comprehend the magnitude of the loss. But there is another generation between these two, one that came of age in the midst of the epidemic with the belief that desire intrinsically led to death, and internalized this trauma as part of becoming queer. Between Certain Death and a Possible Future: Queer Writing on Growing up with the AIDS Crisis offers crucial stories from this missing generation in AIDS literature and cultural politics. This wide-ranging collection includes 36 personal essays on the ongoing and persistent impact of the HIV/AIDS crisis in queer lives. Here you will find an expansive range of perspectives on a specific generational story - essays that explore and explode conventional wisdom, while also providing a necessary bridge between experiences. These essays respond, with eloquence and incisiveness, to the question: How do we reckon with the trauma that continues to this day, and imagine a way out?"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a AIDS (Disease) $x Social aspects. 650 0 $a AIDS (Disease) $x Psychological aspects. 650 0 $a Sexual minorities. 650 0 $a Gays. 700 1 $a Sycamore, Mattilda Bernstein, $e editor. 941 $a 3 952 $l USUX851 $d 20220802020524.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20211202010622.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20210918010143.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B26B07D0184511ECB6BD5C9329ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
