More about the book
The book explores the autobiographies and diaries of Soviet homosexual men who underwent psychotherapy between 1970 and 1980 under psychiatrist Yan Goland. It sheds light on the little-known practices resembling aversion therapy and delves into the "queer dilemmas" these individuals faced while reconciling their sexual identities with Soviet societal norms. Through these personal narratives, the work enhances our understanding of the psychological struggles and societal pressures experienced by homosexual individuals in that era.
