Fiction. Short Stories. LGBTQIA Studies. In her debut collection of stories, PRETEND WE LIVE HERE , Genevieve Hudson explores the idea of home and what it means to find one: in the body, in the world, in other people. Her characters are seekers, whose actions are influenced by their slippery identities and by the strange landscapes that surround them. These stories hum with sexual tension, queerness, displacement, longing, humor, and dark nostalgia.
