Anyway, so for classes, I wrote essays on gay Christian celibates, Walt Whitman, some obscure poets and theologians.

And eventually, queer theology, and the place—often lack—of gay sex within it. The book begins with the most recent work (2020ish) and goes backwards.

To Whom It May Concern:

In “The Bartimaeus Trilogy: Book Three: Ptolemy’s Gate” 1st edition Copyright 2006, on the first paragraph on page 216, the first word of line four is “resposibilities.” I believe it is supposed to be “responsibilities.”

I am really enjoying the book! Thanks.
