Cover of "Queer as Foklore: The Hidden Queer History of Myths and Monsters" by Sacha Coward, against a colorful backdrop. The cover is yellow, with "QUEER AS" in large sans-sarif red text, and "Folklore" in black, flowy text with serifs. In the center, to the right of "AS" is artwork of a merman-fairy, with a the upper body of a shirtless man with his arms crossed, with a short brown hair, a mustache, a unicorn horn and fins at the top of his head, with transparent fairy wings coming out from his back, wearing a necklace with a large, lock-like red heart. Below his waste is a mermaid tale, but at his waste it's embellsihed with frills and tentacles, and there are smaller fins coming off of the sides of the tail before it tapers to a peacock-feather like fin. The author's name is in red text to the right of the mermaid, and above it are comments such as "Essential" from Patrick Ness, "Inspiring" from "Divina de Campo" and a black circle with "The Sunday's Times Bestseller" as well as a Library barcode. At the top, the subtitle of the book is in black text.

Time for another book Review! My next review is for Queer as Folklore: The Hidden Queer History of Myths and Monsters, by museum historian Sacha Coward. (1/9)

LGBTQ+ Characters in Folklore Around the World — Hidden Histories and Magical Tales - Roger Hyttinen Author Blog post in which I discuss LGBTQ+ Characters in Folklore Around the World

New on the blog: exploring queer characters in folklore from Loki’s shapeshifting, to Two-Spirit traditions and beyond. These hidden magical tales are wild. Let’s reclaim the magic. buff.ly/3474QxW #WritingLife #QueerFolklore #AuthorBlog #WritingCommunity #Mythology

A copy of the book 50 LGBTQ+ Finds on a green background. The name of the author, Ben Paites, is in yellow at the bottom. A green coloured bust of a young man is in the centre of the cover.

A medieval harness pendant made of copper alloy. It is rectangular with a tubular section on the left side. The object is a dark grey and brown colour. It depicts a white unicorn with red wings, made in enamel.

Tying into the brand new #MythicalCreatures exhibition at Colchester Castle, my latest book “50 LGBTQ+ Finds” has a whole chapter on myth and folklore. It includes this wonderful medieval harness pendant of a winged unicorn. #QueerFolklore
