A truly enormous collection of short stories from a diverse
collection of LGBT writers. The stories are eclectic and brilliant,
and it's pretty much the essential purchase of 2015 for even the
most casual reader of queer fiction.
*Lethe Press*
One of the most exquisite gay anthologies of the year
*Huffington Post*
This often dark collection explores what it means to be a gay man.
There are certainly special things to be found among the 40
stories.
*Independent*
It's a rich, varied identity explored here that spans locations,
cultures, perspectives ages and eras. With work from familiar
British talent to internationally-acclaimed authors. Speak my
Language is an opportunity to hear a myriad of gay voices.
*Winq*
There's a particular kind of loneliness or isolation that many of
the excellent writers included here, like Patrick Gale and Damian
Barr, explore which reflects the experience of being gay, whether
in secret or out in the open
*Sunday Herald*
Reading Speak my Language is a reminder that the short story is a
quick piece of literature for the deep thinker. While you may be
able to read these stories quickly, the handful of pages they cover
tend to provide as much food for thought as a full novel
