Item description from seller

Paperback. With bold Southern humor, journalist and performer Kirk Read takes readers on a guided tour of his precocious and courageous adolescence. Recalling his years as an openly gay high school student, Read describes how he navigated the hallways with his sense of humor and dignity intact. He fondly recalls his initiations into sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll, as well as his "shy as neon" acts of rabble rousing during high school. How I Learned to Snap is a refreshingly victim-free story in which queer teenagers are creative, resilient, and ultimately heroic. A call to acceptance with a Southern accent, Read's coming out story is heartbreaking, comic, tragic and redemptive as he tells of his youth in the Shenandoah Valley and how he passed through the rough terrain of the Bible Belt to undertake a career as a young, queer journalist. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
