Queer As Folklore - Book Talk with Sacha Coward

XX SOLD OUT XX Add yourself to the waiting list from the dropdown menu below - we'll be in touch if any tickets become available.

As part of Queer History Club we are thrilled to welcome Sacha Coward to talk about his book, Queer As Folklore with historian Kit Heyam.

Were vampires gay before Interview With The Vampire? What hidden queer love story hides within The Little Mermaid? And just what is it about queers and unicorns?! Sacha Coward's Queer As Folklore dives into the queer history of myths, legends and monsters to answer all these questions and more. Join him for a reading and conversation at our most fantastical Queer History Club yet.

Sacha will also sign copies of his book which will be available to purchase at the event.

Date: Sunday 6th October 2024
Time: 5-7pm
Venue: The Bookish Type, 77a Great George Street, LS1 3BR

Tickets are on a sliding scale (£5 / £3)
Please be honest about your financial situation when selecting what to pay for your ticket. If you purchase a ticket at the lowest end of the scale when you could afford the higher ticket prices, it makes it harder for us to provide financial flexibility to those who most need it.

£5 "I am comfortably able to meet all of my basic financial needs."
£3 "I may stress about meeting my basic financial needs but still regularly achieve them."

If cost is a barrier please get in touch. Tickets are only refundable up to 7 days before the event starts. Please email to cancel.
