Not so much a `how to' manual on coming out, as a collection of those defining moments of coming out, to oneself, and other people. Again and again, I found myself thinking `yes, that's how it is'. The book originated in a cabaret show by Sutcliffe, a performer and drama teacher, and incorporates many of the stories she received from people who had seen the show. As a result, the book has the feel of performance to it: the stories are punchily told, often graphic, full of humour and emotion. Although Sutcliffe's characters are from all over the world, the bulk are British, which makes a refreshing change from the predominantly US-based works which are generally available. This is an excellent book for anyone needing support in coming out, or for anyone trying to understand the feelings of s lesbian, gay or bisexual loved-one.
