Random House presents the audio edition of Straight Jacket, written and read by Matthew Todd.

Winner Boyz best LGBT book 2017

Short-listed for the Polari book prize 2017

Straight Jacket is a revolutionary clarion call for gay men, the wider LGBT community and their friends and family. Part memoir, part groundbreaking polemic, it looks beneath the shiny facade of contemporary gay culture and asks if gay people are as happy as they could be - and if not, why not?

Meticulously researched, courageous and life-affirming, Straight Jacket offers invaluable practical advice on how to overcome a range of difficult issues. It also recognises that this is a watershed moment, a piercing wake-up call to arms for the gay and wider community to acknowledge the importance of supporting all young people - and helping older people to transform their experience and finally get the lives they really want.

hmmmm

If you've stumbled across this book, you probably need to read it. And read it now...

Commenté au Royaume-Uni 🇬🇧 le 24 juin 2018

Achat vérifié

There's a lot of positive reviews for this book and I doubt my heaping on even more superlatives would really add anything.

But I did want to leave review, because this book is a revelation: It's surprising how, after reading it, suddenly its "thesis" is so bleeding obvious! That internalised "shame" damages young gay people, profoundly. And it really does explain an awful lot of behaviours one sees in "gay life".

Being over forty now, I've turned my back on dating, gay life, the gay community. I did so thinking everyone else is happy and I don't fit in... because I'm flawed.

Despite having plenty of evidence that other gay people aren't permanently happy and well adjusted, I still thought that I was the problem (not "white" enough, not "fit" enough, not "young" enough). I've been lucky enough to avoid some of the destructive behaviours this book describes, but I do have the same destructive thoughts. And and overwhelming sense of emptiness. If any of that sounds even vaguely familiar, please do read this book. If only because I suspect it will help you make sense of your life a little better.

I read this over one weekend, so in no time at all. And it really was worth the time :)

UK centered, interesting but a bit repetitive

Commenté au Royaume-Uni 🇬🇧 le 24 avril 2022

Achat vérifié

I read most of this book but you get the impression that most gays end up as drunks and drug addicts with no ability to have a relationship. For me, not living in the UK during the past 30 years it was informative of the current state of deep rooted homophobia and sheds light on all the homophobic things that previously happened and my generation took for granted when we never should have. It is right that many older gays were brainwashed into thinking that prejudice against them was deserved. This book is very much related to the London gay scene and the UK. Probably of little interest to most people brought up outside of the UK or the many non-scene, successful career gays that the book forgets to mention.

Illuminating and worthwhile read

Commenté au Royaume-Uni 🇬🇧 le 4 juin 2021

Achat vérifié

Read through some of the 1 star reviews and thought they were quite unfair - e.g not being able to find one's own gay experience in this book. The first two thirds of this book were illuminating, researched in depth, and highlighted things to me I never realised but were absolutely spot on about how growing up in a society were gayness is shameful has profoundly affected me, and also the gay community I've for some reason I've always had an uneasy relationship with. This book spelt it
all out.

Todd has a real nice guy tone too. Feels like a friend or the words of a brother, the type of guy you'd really hope to meet in the gay world.

This book contextualised and helped me to understand better my past

Commenté au Royaume-Uni 🇬🇧 le 20 juillet 2018

Achat vérifié

Wow! Where to start? This book is astonishing. Don't even think about it: just buy it and read it. If you're LGBT: read it! If you have an LGBT friend or family member: read it! If you just care about other people: read it. AND ESPECIALLY, if you are in the privileged position of nurturing children and young adults read it! This book contextualised and helped me to understand better my past, where I am situated now with regard to it, and why I respond to events and people in the present in the way that I do, in a way that no other comparable book has. Todd's honesty and integrity in intermingling his own personal story with those of many other LGBT people is heartbreaking, heartwarming and massively uplifting all at the same time. I couldn't put this book down once I'd started, and there will be no LGBT person (regardless of your age or background) who will not gain by reading this. Even if you think you’ve dealt with all the inevitable societal issues of growing up LGBT in a straight world this book will still have something to offer you. It will leave every reader with an understanding of how far LGBT people have come in the last four decades, but also enable us to think about how and how much more we can all do to improve our own and each others' lives. This book was so uplifting: I've hardly been able to think of anything else since I read it two weeks ago, and I know I'll return to it again and again. Many thanks indeed Matthew Todd.

A Revolutionary Read

Commenté au Royaume-Uni 🇬🇧 le 20 décembre 2020

Achat vérifié

I reccomend all to read this , even if you approach it and think it is purely a self help book. It is so much more than that. I was hesitant myself and mainly because I was afraid of facing past demons and taking off the jacket to see what was under the surface. In other words by reading this book it may help you strip off the layers of what potentially has held you back in life. For me it uncovered some dark areas and made me uncomfortable at first but I am glad I persevered. Go with it I say and by doing so some scars may lift away and confidence may stay.
