The Black Flamingo - A Novel in Verse About a Mixed-Race Gay Teen In London Who Discovers Drag



The Black Flamingo by Dean Atta



Michael is a mixed-race gay teen growing up in London. All his life, he's navigated what it means to be Greek-Cypriot and Jamaican--but never quite feeling Greek or Black enough.

As he gets older, Michael's coming out is only the start of learning who he is and where he fits in. When he discovers the Drag Society, he finally finds where he belongs--and the Black Flamingo is born.
