Daphne Gottlieb, author of Kissing Dead Girls Synopsis:At once a love letter to the Rose City and a dream of escape, the first-person narratives of Portland Queer reveal the contradictions and commonalities of life on one of the worldas great queer meccas. A waiter falls in love with a straight guy from the cafe next door. A young dyke discovers gay karaoke at the Silverado. A pregnant man prepares for new life transitions. An ambitious teenager finds her tribe at St. Maryas Academy. A closet-case is confronted by his wife. And a video-game addict takes a chance on love.
