A deeply personal memoir from Barbara Peabody, documenting her son Peter’s struggle with AIDS and the emotional toll of illness, love, fear, grief and care within a family. Written as a mother’s journal, The Screaming Room captures the human reality of the AIDS crisis through one family’s experience.

This is a moving and historically significant account of AIDS, motherhood, queer life, family loyalty and the search for courage in the face of devastating illness. It will appeal to readers interested in LGBTQ+ history, AIDS history, memoir, social history and personal testimony from the 1980s.
