Acceptance: Stories at the Centre of Us

Engen Books and Quadrangle are proud to bring you Acceptance: Stories at the Centre of Us, a collaboration anthology featuring stories by and about the 2SLGBTQIA+ community. Quadrangle’s mission is to create a community centre for 2SLGBTQAI+ individuals and organizations in Newfoundland and Labrador, a space that is a resource for building community resilience and connection, and that provides supports for existing initiatives of our 2SLGBTQAI+ community. As a registered charity, both working toward having a community centre, and taking up projects like this one contribute to Quad’s vision of contributing to sustainable, positive, community connections. All profits from this collection will go towards that goal.

This collection features twenty-two astonishing short stories hand-picked by editors Ailsa Craig, Sulaimon Giwa, AJ Ryan, and Sarah Thompson, and features the talents of authors such as Hannah Jenkins (The Birds Come Back in the Spring), Rhea Rollmann (A Queer History of Newfoundland), Daze Jefferies (Land of Many Shores: Stories from a Diverse Newfoundland and Labrador), Ali House (The Lightbulb Forest), and many more!
