Queer Mythology: Epic Legends from Around the World

"Dive into the rich tapestry of mythology through a queer lens with Guido A. Sanchez, as he unveils hidden stories, celebrates overlooked characters, and redefines the boundaries of traditional narratives in his groundbreaking book, Queer Mythology. Drawing upon a deep well of cultural and historical knowledge, Sanchez skillfully weaves together a collection of myths and legends from around the world, shedding light on the often-neglected tales with truth and the underlining message we queer folx need to hear: We've always existed."

"Fascinating and validating, these mythological heroes are highlighted with great care and exquisite art."

"Guido A. Sanchez has created a lovely collection of inclusive and affirming myths from around the world that show that queer folks have always been here, and we have always been heroes."

"I went through such a range of emotions reading these beautiful stories. While I thoroughly enjoyed each one, I couldn't help but wonder how many more stories about our LGBTQIA+ community have been lost, either intentionally or not, and that made me a little sad and angry. But the emotion I settled on was gratitude. I'm grateful that so many of these tales have been found and retold so they can be shared once more, letting the world know not only that we're still here, but that we always have been."

"With each story in Queer Mythology, Guido A. Sanchez gives each reader a chance to see themselves reflected, proving that queer stories and people have always existed and have always been part of the narrative. An important, fun, and relatable book of tales that should be part of every kid's introduction into mythology."

"Queer Mythology retells timeless fables from around the world to reveal their queer truth. Pitched just right for middle-grade readers, these epic tales are perfectly complemented by the gorgeous illustrations. I was reminded of all of our queer ancestors, both real and imaginary, and how much they want all young LGBTQIA+ people to find joy. The legends in Queer Mythology are truly compelling."

"You may think you know what the tracks on this album are going to be, but Guido A. Sanchez surprises, not only with some deep cuts drawn from a wide array of world mythologies, but also with some golden oldies, now with all their original queerness intact. A great addition to the collections of mythology-lovers everywhere and an important reminder that LGBTQIA+ heroes have been with us all along--we just didn't always get to hear their stories fully told. Until now."

"Queer Mythology is a definitive tome, as each page is brimming of wonder and inspiration. It's a testament to the power of storytelling, and what it can mean to us as queer people."
