Combination of theory and memoir, muddies the binary of transgressive and normative through reflections on queerness, motherhood, pregnancy, and family.

Frequent mentions of Buddhism, reference to a theorist who makes questionable claims about being pregnant with mixed children as a white woman, and naming their child with a Native American name are all aspects of the books that entirely fail to interrogate the role whiteness, which is both jarring and disappointing.cryptidcas's review
