[quotes] Last Night at the Telegraph Club - Malinda Lo 2021

 

"1954 - the San Francisco Police Department launches a drive against so-called 'sex-deviates,' raiding gay bars and other known gay gathering places."

"Silky heat ran through her like a river."

"It was as if there were cycles that repeated themselves over and over, but most people never saw the repetition; they were too deeply enmeshed in their own path to see."

"Perhaps that was the most perverse part of this: the inside-outness of everything, as if denial would make it go away, when it only made the pain in her chest tighten, when it only made her emotions clearer."
