Mae Diansangu, Louise Welsh, and Lewis Hetherington are just some of the authors who contributed to Who Will Be Remembered Here: Queer Spaces in Scotland.
In this special discussion, author and journalist Carrie Marshall sits down with the trio to discover how the book reconsiders and reimagines the built and natural world through a queer lens. Queerness weaves through Scotland’s past, but it’s largely intangible and absent from accounts of what came before. In this collection of stories, fourteen authors explore the places and spaces which define their queer history, from theatres and hillsides to amusement arcades and libraries — wherever they’ve found meaning.
By making invisible stories visible, Who Will Be Remembered Here captures something of the richness, complexity and beauty of a history that belongs to all of us.
