Publisher's Synopsis

A speculative memoir of gender transition and recovery from addiction, refracted through pop culture, queer theory, film, TV, literature, and (what feels like) stand-up comedy - like The Argonauts caught in a hall of mirrors, with a lot more sex and humour.



Our Booksellers Say...

"I don't often use the word genius, but I think I might have to make an exception for Grace Lavery. Reading this book is a bit like attending the most scintillating lecture, which then turns into a comedy show, which then turns into a cabaret, and back to a lecture...and so on. Buckle up and enjoy!"

Emily, Bookseller (Broad Street)
