"Boys Like Her" is a provocative collection of fiction and photos by Taste This a queer performance group including Anna Camilleri, Ivan Coyote, Zoe Eakle and Lyndell Mongomery. Includes an introduction by Kate Bornstein. "Boys Like Her" is a road movie of young queer life. Four distinct voices come together in a tag-team dialogue, interwoven with disturbingly beautiful photographs that echo their transformative energy.
