Your Wound, My Garden by Alok Vaid-Menon

5.0

"this is what it feels like to be brown, trans, femme,/and alive."

incredible. a remarkable, formidable narrative of the entanglement of ethnicity, gender, and sexuality. each word is chosen carefully and lovingly, put on the page like a harsh truth and glimpse of reality all at once. the language surrounding the queer body and the translation failures between one's culture and identity are truly important themes, always.
