hello fellow gay people, i'm looking for book recommendations! but specifically anything similar to maurice by e.m. forster and the charioteer by mary renault - i've added fellow travellers and giovanni's room to my list, but anything similar to this genre i.e. historical/period but also queer. lesbian more than welcome and encouraged actually
so it's the york international shakespeare festival right now (and i'm a volunteer!) and there's a shakespeare and manga exhibition and i can't stop thinking about how much this cunty hamlet looks like enjolras
i was telling someone in my history class today about my dissertation and i said oh yeah i'm writing on les mis and comparing it with different classical greek texts and i told her the title and she said ohh are you writing it on enjolras and grantaire and i was like 🤨😏🙂↕️ ...yeah and that my friends is TRUE allyship
i'm sorry but i simply cannot see grantaire as ugly no matter how hard i try. you can draw him as conventionally ugly or as conventionally attractive as you like but he will always be very gorgeous to me. insert roald dahl quote from the twits send post
has anyone ever written a les amis mystery inc. au because i can't get over how much this guy makes me think of grantaire and this video made me think it needs to happen
not to erase my own lesbian identity but i can't stop thinking about good luck, babe! by chappell roan and the classic trope of grantaire hooking up with a million different guys who look like enj to get over him
when the ex ballerina in me wants to read exr ballet aus but the ex ballerina in me also might throw up at the mention of ballet (there are two wolves inside of you)
one thing about my life that i think is really cool and one of the better things to happen to me is i took theatre studies a-level (the (optional) qualifications you sit aged 17-18 in the uk) and one of our set texts was SWEENEY TODD and the focus of its exam paper was deconstructing texts for performance aka how would YOU direct sweeney todd and THESE were the actual questions i had to answer to gain a qualification in order to get into university
like are you kidding me the extract question was on pretty women and epiphany
