Thanks to Random House for the free copy of this book.
- Torrey Peters is back with more stories digging deep into the personal and cultural constructions and meanings of gender.
- Each story in this collection is emotionally and physically intense. Peters doesn’t look away from the weirdness of bodies and the feelings we have about them.
- There are just so many layers to this book. The more I think about it, the more connections I make and the more I find to ponder.
