Part-fable, part-manifesto, the book takes place in Ramrod, an empire in decline, and introduces us to the communities of the faggots, the women, the queens, the queer men, and the women who love women who are surviving the ways and world of men.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCherished by many over the four decades since its publication, \u003cem\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eThe Faggots and Their Friends Between Revolutions\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e offers a trenchant critique of capitalism, assimilation, and patriarchy that is deeply relevant today. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePraise for \u003cem\u003eThe Faggots and Their Friends Between Revolutions\u003c\/em\u003e...\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"Oh! This book is so delicious and timeless! Open the pages, enter the fantastical, familiar empire of Ramrod, and hear someone whisper to you: here are the ways to survive. This is how we have always survived, swallowing every aspect of each other, holding on to each other, becoming more fabulous together. This book instantly awakens in the reader our inner faggots, strong women, queens, queers, fairies...even our men. We are held accountable for how free we are being in our lives, and then we are invited, no, required! to open even more to our own power, our own pleasures, our own revolution. This cult classic is in the lineage of pleasure activism - you must read it and then pass it along to someone who needs to be reminded that their freedom is necessary for all of us. This is a guide and an escape, whimsical and practical. Hit this pipe. Again.\"—\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003eadrienne marie brown\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Larry Mitchell","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42502572343414,"sku":null,"price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}]}],"url":"https:\/\/breadandrosespress.com\/collections\/nightboat-books.oembed","provider":"Bread \u0026 Roses Press","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
