Difference Is Born On The Lips - Book reading and discussion with Michael Handrick

Join local author Michael Handrick next month for a reading and discussion on his new book Difference is Born on the Lips

18th February, 19hs

"In this shockingly raw but beautifully written book, Michael Handrick unpicks the toxic narratives and myths built up by society of what it means to be a man, gay and working class. Moving through time and memory, from a rural council estate surrounded by snowdrop-filled forests, to searching for his sense of self across London, Italy, America and beyond, he explores how his struggles with mental health and abuse were compounded by stigmas around class, masculinity and sexuality."
