Rainbows in the Rough: The Unlikely Queer Icons That Shaped a Closeted Queen - A Hilarious, Heartfelt Journey Through Pop Culture's Hidden Rainbows In Rainbows in the Rough , writer and cultural commentator Shaun Ponsonby queers the canon in the most gloriously unexpected way. This witty, deeply personal memoir-meets-cultural critique tracks the queer coming-of-age of a closeted working-class kid in 1990s Britain-not through the expected icons of glitter and drag, but via prog rock, American sitcoms, Bruce Springsteen, and Laurel & Hardy. Part queer pop-culture confessional, part takedown of mainstream LGBTQ+ representation, Ponsonby blends sharp humour, music nerdery, and poignant reflection in essays that span from Stan Laurel to Queen, Freddie Mercury to Pretty Woman. The result is a love letter to the misfit icons who offer solace in the most unlikely places-and a reminder that queerness isn't one note, it's a full, messy, spectacular symphony. Perfect for fans of LGBTQ memoirs, queer pop culture, music history, humour writing, and books like Boyslut or The Queer Bible .
