Dear Reader, If you were born a free man or if you are one of the many survivors of communism, perhaps you are interested in reading the authentic life story of the Szombathy family, the devastating life they lived, and their persecution under the communist system. How the "red epidemic" destroyed their integrity as human beings and caused them much hardship. The unjust ways the ancient, noble family was forced into hard-labor camps and jail because they didn't agree with the system's ideas. Then, their daughter made a wish to be free. A warm "wind-like" touch across her face let her know that there is still hope for breaking out of the choking tightness of communism and finding healing in the light of freedom. That light of freedom she found in the United States of America. "America! America! God shed his grace on thee!" Ildiko Eva Szombathy

Set against the backdrop of a country which upholds a heteronormative and narrow view of family, this book provides insights into the lives of Hungarian same-sex couples and their heterosexual relatives. Béres-Deák utilizes the theoretical framework of intimate citizenship, as well as findings from ethnographic interviews, participant observation and online sources. Instead of emphasizing the divide between non-heterosexual people and their heterosexual kin, the author recognizes that these members of queer families share many similar experiences and challenges.Queer Families in Hungary looks at experiences of coming out, negotiation of visibility, and kinship practices, and offers valuable insights into how individuals and families can resist heterosexist constraints through their discourses and practices. Students and scholars researching kinship studies, LGBT and queer studies, post-socialist studies, and citizenship studies, will find this book of interest.
