Queer Love and Longing

As queer romance joins the mainstream with hit shows like Heartstopper and Heated Rivalry, these writers show that queer love and love stories have always existed.

Palestinian writer Tareq Baconi and Egyptian Australian journalist Daniel Nour share their experiences of growing up queer and Arab in their memoirs, Fire in Every Direction and How to Dodge Flying Sandals. While actor and writer Zoe Terakes uses their Cretan heritage as inspiration for reimagining Greek myths as queerer than ever in Eros.

Join Tareq, Daniel and Zoe, with host Maeve Marsden, as they reflect on modern and everlasting stories of queer love.
