This anthology recognizes and celebrates this moment by exploring what the idea of \"family\" means to people today, through personal essays about the broad range of relationships they create. \u003ci\u003eA Family by Any Other Name\u003c\/i\u003e features stories about coming out of the closet and dating, marriage and parenting, and divorce and coping with the death of a spouse. The essays are by turns funny, provocative, and intelligent, but all are moving and honest. Including a wide range of perspectives on queer relationships and families -- there are essays on coming out, same-sex marriage, adopting, having biological kids, polyamorous relationships, families without kids, divorce, and dealing with the death of a spouse, as well as essays by straight writers about having a gay parent or child -- in one book, this collection offers honest and moving real-life stories about relationships and creating families in the 21st century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bruce Gillespie\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1771510544\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781771510547\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Touchwood Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/15\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.50h x 5.60w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Lambda Literary Awards - Finalist\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAward:\u003c\/b\u003e Independent Publisher Book Awards - Silver Medal Winner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eQuill \u0026amp; Quire\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2014 pg. 32\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/15\/2014 pg. 96","brand":"Bruce Gillespie","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48014048067839,"sku":"9781771510547","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8d9760b2-b63e-46ac-899e-b2bec169e7eb.jpg?v=1767746398","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-family-by-any-other-bruce-gillespie-9781771510547","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
