Produktbeschreibung
An exhilarating, thought-provoking and joyful debut that asks how we create our identities and how we can transcend them. 'Language gave to me the body I knew was mine and brought into existence so many possibilities for what my gender can be.' Across these twenty fresh and boldly intimate stories, Erin Riley writes about the things that matter most: family, heartbreak, humanity, justice and swimming, and the messy, hard graft of becoming one's authentic self. In weaving together their everyday while questioning society and its structures, Erin gifts us stories that double as a manifesto on how to disrupt and reinvent narrative, identity, love and community. Life is complicated, messy and - when small risks are taken - even exhilarating. In Erin's hands we fall in love, get curious and become exasperated with (and sometimes charmed by) the people in their life, emerging with new perspectives on how to be in the world.

By night, Erin's a skivvy-wearer, a dedicated reader, wrestling fan, swimmer of laps and a lover of routine.
