Little Sister's Classics is an imprint dedicated to reviving lost and out-of-print gay and lesbian classic books. The series is produced in conjunction with Little Sisters Books, the heroic gay Vanouver bookstore well-known for its anticensorship efforts.
"By making a commitment to these works, Little Sister's and Arsenal Pulp are asserting the value of these stories as great works that deserve to be read today. But the series also offers a broader context, the history and details into the fascinating lives of the book's authors, their eccentricities, and why their writing was remarkable at the time it was published. They lend currency to the presentation of queer cultural perspectives and give them a place. Like many queer history projects, this series serves to illustrate the cultural impact of queer writing, its ability to resist exclusion, and preserve the narratives of queer lives." --fastForward Magazine
