LESBIAN / GAY / BI / TRANS - MEDALIST WINNER

Paralian - Not Just Transgender

by Liam Klenk

The term “Paralian” comes from ancient Greek origins, meaning “one who lives by the sea”. There could be no more apt title for Liam Klenk’s memoir. In Paralian, he recounts the sweeping and nomadic movements of his life via the lens of the rivers, lakes and oceans by which he periodically makes a home.
The voice and experience of Liam Klenk is tender, vulnerable, and honest. As the title would suggest, Paralian – Not Just Transgender tells a tale far wider in scope than Liam’s courageous journey through gender reassignment. If anything, the story is about the events that occur before, during, and afterwards; a quest of finding his place in this world against a lifetime of adversity. Written with an engaging sense of humor, this incredibly frank memoir challenges common stereotypes and will find readers still thinking about what they have read long after they finish the book.

One Little Word

by T. A. Peters

In the wilderness of 19th century Florida: Posing as man and wife, a young lesbian couple infiltrates a hidden church where they discover that the divine miracles performed by a professed angel are merely a cover for the church leader's attempts to both prepare for armageddon and father an entire colony of children sycophantically loyal to his demented visions.
