This ground-breaking volume makes visible a long and diverse tradition of queer writing from Wales.

The first anthology of its kind in Wales, which finally sheds light on a largely hidden queer cultural history with the careful selection of over 40 short stories (1837-2018) including work by John Sam Jones, Sian James, Rhys Davies, Deborah Kay Davies, Aled Islwyn, and Kate North. New translations of Kate Roberts, Mihangel Morgan, Jane Edwards, Pennar Davies, and Dylan Huw make available their compelling stories for the first time to a non-Welsh speaking readership.
