Description
Between Worlds: A Queer Boy from the Valleys
A personal account of identity and community, set against the backdrop of the Rhondda valleys. Born in 1945, Jeffrey Weeks recounts his journey as an outsider in a tight-knit community, and how he found escape through education and the emerging gay liberation movement.
This memoir is also a significant contribution to our understanding of sexuality, with Weeks' seminal work on LGBT movements and identities since the 19th century. First published over forty years ago, it remains an important study in the field.
