COLOR OUTSIDE THE LINES Stories About Love

Listeners will find themselves drawn into the hope and possibility of young love with this powerful and inclusive anthology. The stories feature individuals within the queer community who are representative of diverse racial and cultural backgrounds. The ensemble of narrators adds to the varied stories and infuses the selections with empathy and compassion. The narrators are well matched to stories that address multiple issues in their depictions of love: family, acceptance, difference, class, discrimination, acceptance, and more. There are several standouts including "Turn the Sky to Petals" and "Gilman Street," narrated by Maria Liatis, "Your Life Matters," narrated by Channie Waites, and "The Boy Is," narrated by Catherine Ho.
