Take a journey through time and genres and discover a past where queer figures live, love and shape the world around them. Seventeen of the best young adult authors across the queer spectrum have come together to create a collection of beautifully written diverse historical fiction for teens.
From a retelling of Little Red Riding Hood set in war-torn 1870s Mexico featuring a transgender soldier... to two girls falling in love while mourning the death of Kurt Cobain... to forbidden love in a sixteenth-century Spanish convent... to an asexual girl discovering her identity amid the 1970s roller-disco scene... All Out tells a diverse range of stories across cultures, time periods and identities, shedding light on an area of history often ignored or forgotten.
