Through the eyes of publishing icon Michael Denneny, this cultural autobiography traces the evolution of the US’s queer community in the three decades post-Stonewall. The Stonewall Riots of 1969 and the AIDS crisis of the 1980s have been captured in minute detail, and rightly memorialized in books, on tv, and in film as pivotal and powerful moments in queer history. Yet what about the moments in between—the tumultuous decade post-Stonewall when the queer community’s vitality and creativity exploded across the country, even as the AIDS crisis emerged? Michael Denneny was there for it all. As a founder and editor of the wildly influential magazine Christopher Street and later as the first openly gay editor at a major publishing house, Denneny critically shaped publishing around gay subjects in the 1970s and beyond. At St. Martin’s Press, he acquired a slew of landmark titles by gay authors—many for his groundbreaking Stonewall Inn Editions—propelling queer voices into the mainstream cultural conversation. On Christopher Street is Denneny’s time machine, going back to that heady period to lay out the unfolding geographies and storylines of gay lives and capturing the raw immediacy of his and his contemporaries’ daily lives as gay people in America. Through forty-one micro-chapters, he uses his journal writings, articles, interviews, and more from the 1970s and ‘80s to illuminate the twists and turns of a period of incomparable cultural ferment. One of the few surviving voices of his generation, Denneny transports us back in time to share those vibrant in-between moments in gay lives—the joy, sorrow, ecstasy, and energy—across three decades of queer history.

Eine unwahrscheinliche Liebe, ein unerbittliches Gesetz, ein großer historischer Moment – ein gefühlvoller Roman über das Recht zu lieben, wen man will In ihrem historischen Roman »Pride began on Christopher Street« verknüpfen Christian Handel und Andreas Suchanek die dramatischen Ereignisse, auf die der Christopher Street Day zurückgeht, mit einer tief bewegenden queeren Liebesgeschichte. New York 1969: Den Polizisten Jake und den schwulen Freigeist Finn trennen das Gesetz, ihre Herkunft und ihre Vorstellung davon, wen man lieben darf. Dennoch rettet Jake Finn vor einem brutalen Polizeiübergriff. Denn Jake ist selbst schwul, ohne es sich einzugestehen, und zwischen ihnen funkt es sofort. Obwohl sie in ihren Vorurteilen über den anderen gefangen sind, nähern sie sich an. Als sich in der Nacht auf den 28. Juni 1969 im Stonewall Inn in der Christopher Street die Bar-Besucher erstmals gegen die Polizei wehren, müssen sich die beiden entscheiden, auf welcher Seite sie stehen ... Der 28. Juni 1969 wird im Roman für Jake und Finn zum Schicksalsmoment für ihre Liebe – und in der Realität schrieb dieser Tag Geschichte: Der Stonewall-Aufstand in der Christopher Street wird zum Wendepunkt der LGBTQIA+-Bewegung im Kampf um Gleichbehandlung und Anerkennung . In ihrem ebenso dramatischen wie emotionalen Roman »Pride began on Christopher Street « erzählen Christian Handel und Andreas Suchanek nicht nur von einer außergewöhnlichen queeren Liebe, sondern auch von der Geburtsstunde des Christopher Street Day. Schon ein Jahr nach dem Aufstand wird das Ereignis in New York mit einem Gedenkmarsch gewürdigt. Heute finden Pride-Paraden, im deutschen Sprachraum oft Christopher Street Day (CSD) -Paraden, weltweit statt als buntes Fest der Diversität.

"As a founder and editor of the wildly influential magazine Christopher Street and then as the first openly gay editor at a mainstream publishing house, Michael Denneny critically shaped publishing around gay subjects and themes in the 1970s and 1980s. Authors whom he helped bring into the spotlight include Paul Monette, Randy Shilts, Ethan Mordden, Edmund White, Larry Kramer, and John Preston. Here he presents not a conventional memoir, but an assemblage of writings from the 1970s and 1980s (many previously unpublished) that illuminate the twists and turns of a period of great cultural and political ferment. Denneny's time machine of a book both preserves and brings back to life a vibrant period in American cultural history"--

On Christopher Street there are all kinds of sexual orientations and gender identities, endless possibilities of potential selves: transgender, transsexual, non-binary, genderqueer, femme, butch, cross-dresser, drag kings, drag queens, and many other identities that shift, adapt, and challenge our understanding of gender. This street nestled in the middle of New York City’s Greenwich Village is heralded as the birthplace of the modern LGBTQ rights movement. Today, the intersection at Christopher and Hudson Streets has been renamed “Sylvia Rivera Way,” after the pioneering trans-activist and the annual LGBTQ pride parade ends its procession on Christopher Street, where the revolution began at the Stonewall Inn. Renowned photographer Mark Seliger, best known for his portraits of celebrities, musicians, and artists, has called the West Village home for nearly two decades. For his latest book, On Christopher Street: Transgender Stories, his curiosity inspired him to shoot a handful of portraits—documentary style—in hopes of capturing the color, flamboyant characters, and theatre of a famous, but vanishing neighborhood. What Seliger discovered was a nightly carnival of personalities that open up the visual discourse about sexuality and the constant ebb and flow of the transgender world we all inhabit today. The end result is a collection of 74 beautiful, black and white portraits, all taken with Seliger’s Hasselblad camera, and never-before-published. These forthcoming portraits of trans people on Christopher Street combined with their moving and deeply personal stories remind us of our need for sanctuary, for a space to call our own. Their presence challenges us to redefine home, community, and ownership. Their presence challenges us to stop and reflect. No longer will we remain idle and pass by them in fear and prejudice. We will stand with them, recognize them, and see them. These are our streets, and these are our people. On Christopher Street: Transgender Stories stands out as some of Seliger’s most powerful work.
