    About the Book

    Edit

    The Book of Being is a queer prayer book that offers selected poetry and writings exploring words of worship to no god or faith in particular, but to the collective vast and ever-expanding experience of queerness. This prayer book offers its readers a range of perspectives from 13 culturally and religiously diverse LGBTQ+ creatives, curated from an open call to queer writers in Boston and across South Asia.

    This project collaboratively creates an introspective queer archive that surpasses religious indoctrination and postcolonial borders, manipulating the prayer book as a mode of devotion and piety that has historically alienated queer folk and transforming its use to revere all that is unconventional, abnormal and kinky.

    The Book of Being was created to coincide with artist Anukriti's solo exhibition, "A Temple for Timeless Beasts," on view at the Boston Center for the Arts during Fall 2022.

    Profits from this book will directly support the publication's contributors.
