Author Talk with Christian Bancroft
March 12, 2026 | 2:00-3:30 pm EST
Boniuk Library
Join Holocaust Museum Houston for an intimate author talk in the Boniuk Library with Houston local Christian Bancroft.
Bancroft will be sharing from his debut book of poetry A Ghost Has No Fantasies. Through haunting poetry and prose, A Ghost Has No Fantasies illuminates the forgotten voices of LGBTQ+ individuals who suffered under Nazi persecution. Drawing from archival documents, survivor testimonies, and Gestapo files, Christian Bancroft weaves together the intimate stories of those imprisoned under Paragraph 175 and beyond — gay men, lesbians, and transgender individuals whose experiences have long remained in the shadows of Holocaust memory.
Copies of the book will be available for purchase at the event with a credit card.
