Brimming with interviews, newspaper clippings, photographs, and flyers, it traces urban, rural, and regional queer experiences from 1945 to the present. Commentaries and short essays introduce a changing queer landscape, organised around four themes: home and family, socialising and sex, arts and culture, and activism and community.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe book explores domestic life and parenting, reveals the unexpected places where LGBTIQ+ people gathered for fun, highlights the importance of creative expression, and documents campaigns for justice and equal rights. Rooted in the tradition of collecting as a way for marginalised people to assert identity and community, A Queer Scrapbook vividly captures the diversity of queer and trans lives across the British and Irish isles since the Second World War. -- .\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEdited by:Justin Bengry, Matt Cook, Rebecca Jennings, E-J Scott\u003cbr\u003eFormat:Paperback \/ softback 216 pages, 221 colour illustrations\u003cbr\u003ePublisher:Manchester University Press\u003cbr\u003eImprint:Manchester University Press\u003cbr\u003eISBN:9781526165312\u003cbr\u003ePublished:31 Mar 2026\u003cbr\u003eClassifications:United Kingdom, Great Britain, Ireland, 20th century, Of specific Gay interest, 20th century history: c 1900 to c 2000, Social \u0026amp; cultural history, Oral history\u003cbr\u003eWeight:564g\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wave of Nostalgia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":63977058795869,"sku":null,"price":20.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0934\/8838\/2301\/files\/9781526165312.jpg?v=1774440565","url":"https:\/\/waveofnostalgia.co.uk\/products\/a-queer-scrapbook-britain-and-ireland-since-1945","provider":"Wave of Nostalgia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
