Bernd Frielingsdorf was an indispensable figure in the queer author scene. He supported all writers with advice and assistance. He also accompanied at least half of our publications at MAIN Verlag on their journey from book baby to the wide world. This anthology is meant to honor him and his contributions to queer literature - as well as his great passion for penguins. The proceeds from the sale of the anthology will be donated to fulfill Bernd's last heartfelt wish: to sponsor a penguin at the Berlin Zoo.
