Coming Out Party


“Heart-wrenching… This collection’s power is in its accessibility.”

-Publisher’s Weekly Editor’s Pick

Debuted as #1 New Release LGBTQ+ Poetry on Amazon 

A memoir of poems and art, Coming Out Party chronicles poet and author Rebecca Bendheim’s queer coming of age journey—from first crushes and toxic homo-erotic friendships, to coming out and secret flings, to finding queer community and falling in love for the first time.

Coming Out Party is a fierce, funny, and deeply personal celebration of the strength it takes to break down the protective walls we’ve built—and embrace our truest selves.

“Poignant, painful, joyful… real. This nuanced, yet accessible, collection of poetry is a gift of considerations; a necessity of heart.”

-K.A. Holt,
author of Redwood & Ponytail
