Queer Enlightenments

Anthony Delaney’s narration brings this historical narrative to life with a passion that’s both captivating and enlightening. Each tale unfolds with a sense of discovery, as if you’re hearing them for the first time. The pacing is deliberate yet brisk, allowing each story to breathe without feeling rushed. One specific element I found particularly poignant was his portrayal of Sarah Wentworth Morton, whose resilience in the face of societal norms truly encapsulates the book’s theme of defiance and self-expression. However, it could benefit from a bit more variation in tone to differentiate between the diverse characters more effectively. Overall, this audiobook is a must-listen for anyone looking to learn about queer history that challenges conventional narratives.
