Show & Tell: Gay Coming of Age in Haud Nominandum Collection (in person)

Andrea Carboni (SHL, Durham) presents his selection of gay coming-of-age literature from Jonathan Cutbill’s Haud Nominandum collection.
About this Event

These texts are exhibited in our membership hall display in the Library for the months of July and August. From Fritz Peters’ 'Finistere' to Samuel Delany’s 'The Motion of Light in Water', the display explores Jonathan Cutbill’s personal collection, questions about growing up gay in the second half of the twentieth century, and the debunking of myhts of adulthood in gay literature.

Join us to discover more about this selection and the Haud Nominandum Collection.

The event will consist of a 40-minute talk, a 20-minute break to visit the display, and a Q&A.
