Cheers to Queers is a memoir in essay form that spans three decades about Moushumi Ghose, a young non-white, feminist growing up in a conservative suburb to educated immigrant parents. She experienced racism, sexism, homophobia, and a culture of rules that did not fit her. As a child in the 1970s, she found solace in music, underage queer nightclubs, fashion in the 1980s, and her fluid chosen families and gay bars in the 1990s. With few rules and even fewer role models, she lived a life of debauchery and freedom, strife with drama and intrigue, at times dark and cold, but always with an air of rebellion and fun. This memoir contains stories of coming of age, coming out, overcoming hurdles, and finding strength and ultimately her identity in large part due to the support of the LGBT community.
