Why read it?

1 author picked Come Together as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

It's an anthology of the publications of the UK Gay Liberation Front from the 1970s. I love the illustrations, the summaries of political disagreements between different factions of communists, anarchists, and assorted others, and the way that trans concerns, feminist concerns and anti-racism are as present in the thoughts of radicals then as they are now, even if different words are used. It's a great, accessible, fun compendium for anyone who wants to imagine a room with hundreds of gay people in it.
