Historia4 out of 5 stars 315
Three brothers tear their way through childhood—smashing tomatoes all over each other, building kites from trash, hiding out when their parents do battle, tiptoeing around the house as their mother sleeps off her graveyard shift. Paps and Ma are from Brooklyn—he’s Puerto Rican, she’s white—and their love is a serious, dangerous thing that makes and unmakes a family many times.

In Queer City, the acclaimed Peter Ackroyd looks at London in a whole new way - through the complete history and experiences of its gay and lesbian population. In Roman Londinium, the city was dotted with lupanaria (“wolf dens” or public pleasure houses), fornices (brothels), and thermiae (hot baths). Then came the Emperor Constantine, with his bishops, monks, and missionaries. And so began an endless loop of alternating permissiveness and censure.

A giddy romp through rape and abuse
Revisado: 05-15-21
This isn't a history of gay relationships as much as it is a catalog of disturbing abuses of power read as if it were harmless titillation. I was putting up with the disgustingly happy recounting of child abuse until I started looking into the underlying scholarship and found it lacking. The author doesn't bother tracing his sources or judging their reliability. It's all written on the level of a buzzfeed article. Decent enough if you know absolutely nothing I suppose, but because the author is dodgy at exactly where he is getting his information, it's hard to even use this as a springboard for further research.

Whether taken as a book of faith or a cultural artifact, the New Testament is among the most significant writings the world has ever known, its web of meaning relied upon by virtually every major writer in the last 2,000 years. Yet the New Testament is not only one of Western civilization’s most believed books, but also one of its most widely disputed, often maligned, and least clearly understood, with a vast number of people unaware of how it was written and transmitted.
