Reviews
"""E.G. Crichton has created a testament to lineage and liberation for all of us who know that diving into the past is also simultaneous discovery into our own psyche. This is a touching study of how identity, art, and lineage tie into the physical artifacts of our lives. Riveting and a true pleasure to read."" --Susie Bright ""Editor-at-Large and Executive Producer of The Bright List at Audible and Author of Mommy's Little Gi"" ""Matchmaking in the Archive connects today's artists and queer ancestors...After reading it, there is a certain and distinct pleasure in a time jump, in nonlinear thinking, in reaching back and forth across decades as though all people from all time, living and dead, are sitting at one table, sharing a meal, passing dishes round and round, sharing and tasting the same things together....If you have any interest in the history and lives of our LGBTQ ancestors, then, yes, this is a book I recommend for you.""--Nico Hall ""Autostraddle"" ""E.G. Crichton's Matchmaking has shown us wonderful new ways of bringing together archives, history, and art. In this account of her work, the living and the dead, objects and records, and people mingle promiscuously, bringing new worlds to light.""--Graham Willett ""historian of queer Australia"" (10/26/2022 12:00:00 AM)"
