A Natural History of Transition by Callum Angus

4.0

geeezzz i loved this!! as the title implies, these tales bring together nature and transness, and it does so in such an honest way. it's not love letters using nature metaphors to wax poetic about trans mutuality and growth and etc (though those are nice too), its fables that totally embrace all parts of nature and transness!! the friendship, the loss, the weird, the magic, the joy, the fear, the anticipation, the humor, and above all the unknown. my favs were "rock jenny" and "archipelagos," but i found a lot in a lot of 'em.

i hope this book explodes into a whole mini genre of nature-trans-fiction. it also has me wanting to read more collections of short stories!! yall got any recs?
