Elton John, Munroe Bergdorf and Tan France are some of the huge list of well-known names who will be contributing essays to The Queer Bible.
A definitive intersectional queer essay collection and a truly beautiful celebration of queer culture, which sees today’s queer heroes write about the queer icons that inspire them.
The Queer Bible, edited by Jack Guinness, each essay will be accompanied by bespoke illustrations from LGBTQ+ and ally artists.
