The term ‘queer’ has evolved to describe a broad spectrum of non-normative ideas, identities, and overall approach to life. Embracing the ‘strange and peculiar’, Queer Poets Society focuses on the niches of poetry that deserve to be brought to light. Featuring poetic analysis, readings of famous queer poets, and interviews with local poets from all walks of life, Mars Tarassenko is dedicated to highlighting the intersection of identity, ideology, and, of course, poetry.

William Shakespeare has us ‘Would-I-Was Shook-Speared’; talking queerness and The Bard with Avery Selk

One day, Avery Selk was working at their local bookstore when Will Tosh, the head researcher of the Shakespeare Globe and author of Straight Acting: The Hidden Queer Lives of William Shakespeare, moseyed on in. Naturally they had to get their hands on a copy (a signed one at that!). In today’s episode, Mars Tarassenko and Avery Selk explore the nature of homosexuality along with the metatheories of homosexuality within Shakespeare’s works.
