Weekend

In Weekend, Jane Eaton Hamilton gives us an astonishingly tender queer exploration of gender, race, class, ability, love, family, sexuality, sex, and kink that is also a damn fine story. Captivating, sexy, heartbreaking. -Sassafras Lowrey, author of Lost Boi Sassafras Lowrey

Weekend is a queer, crip reimagining of What We Talk About When We Talk About Love. Tender and raw, with smoldering sex scenes and intimate arguments that leave bruises, Jane Eaton Hamilton exposes the exquisite vulnerabilities of her characters with empathy and insight. That's the beauty of Weekend, how it illuminates universal themes but changes them, too, revealing how life on the fringes makes "what we talk about when we talk about love" a riskier and more terrifying proposition. -Karrie Higgins, author of "Strange Flowers" Karrie Higgins

Weekend is both a sexy romp and tender exploration of vulnerability. -Zoe Whittall, author of The Best Kind of People Zoe Whittall

Hamilton's writing is propulsive, and the story moves at an effortless pace as it explores a multitude of sexualities and identities, as well as the difficulties and even explosive outcomes of navigating them while remaining faithful to and honest with one's partner or partners. -Publishers Weekly Publishers Weekly

What I like about Weekend is how it depicts sex as part of everyday life and acknowledges queer women and non-binary people as sexual beings without hypersexualizing them. -The Globe and Mail The Globe and Mail

A riveting, frank, nuanced exploration of adult sexuality and love. -Huffington Post Huffington Post
