Too Opinionated Interview: Jo Deluzio

As a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, Jo came out much later in life,  after 20+ years of marriage to a man—to a wide array of different points of view from others who also came out later. The memoir explores her experiences and informs much of the ideas in this unique volume of writing. One part memoir, one part social discussion, and every part honest, Jo’s voice is unique–and her experiences inform much of the conversations she has about coming out.

In fact, coming out is only the beginning. Once out, Jo explores the many different ways members of her community may have a slow, sometimes painful journey to their authentic life. With honesty, humor, and deep insights, Surviving the Closet is essential reading.

With both humor and insight, Surviving the Closet is essential reading for anyone—gay or straight. The right of women and all people with non-conventional sexual orientations or gender identities to live a safe and open life is a story of global human rights and a celebration of diversity.  Publication Date:  November 7th 2023
