A trans pastor\u2019s fascination with the Scripture inherited from his closeted, fundamentalist father.\n\nWhen his dad died, Malcolm Himschoot inherited his father\u2019s Bibles. He chose to re-read them, examining his dad\u2019s notes in the margins, teasing out the details of his upbringing and gender identity amid the structures and forms of biblical narratives. For Malcolm, coming out meant exile and verbal excommunication; he embodied all his gay father tried to hide. In Reading Secrets, he travels alongside the ghost of his father, exploring their inherited homophobia and the American culture that shaped their triumphs and tragedies. With these poetic and evocative meditations, Malcolm transforms the Scripture he inherited, and finds a place in it for himself.\n\nReading Secrets\nA Queer Inheritance of Life and Scripture\nFree UK delivery on this item.\n\nThis brand new item is available with free UK delivery using Royal Mail tracked services.\n\nPlease note that the price ad;
