A
moving, hopeful, and refreshingly candid memoir by the husband of former
Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg about growing up gay in his
small Midwestern town, his relationship with Pete, and his hope for America’s
future.
Throughout the past year,
teacher Chasten Glezman Buttigieg has emerged on the national stage, having
left his classroom in South Bend, Indiana, to travel cross-country in support
of his husband, former mayor Pete Buttigieg, and Pete’s groundbreaking
presidential campaign. Through Chasten’s joyful, witty social media posts, the
public gained a behind-the-scenes look at his life with Pete on the
trail—moments that might have ranged from the mundane to the surprising, but
that were always heartfelt.
Chasten has overcome a
multitude of obstacles to get here. In this moving, uplifting memoir, he
recounts his journey to finding acceptance as a gay man. He recalls his
upbringing in rural Michigan, where he knew he was different, where indeed he
felt different from his father and brothers. He recounts his coming out and how
he’s healed from revealing his secret to his family, friends, community, and
the world. And he tells the story of meeting his boyfriend, whom he would marry
and who would eventually become a major Democratic leader.
With unflinching honesty, unflappable
courage, and great warmth, Chasten Buttigieg relays his experience of growing
up in America and embracing his true self, while inspiring others to do the
same.
