Description

In this sharp and insightful novel, three people navigate the complexities of love, identity, and parenthood in contemporary Brooklyn. Reese, a trans woman, finds herself unexpectedly pregnant by her ex, Ames, who detransitioned to live as a man. Together with Ames's current lover, Katrina, they grapple with the possibility of raising the child, forcing them to confront their pasts and uncertain futures. Torrey Peters offers a refreshingly honest portrayal of trans lives, exploring themes of desire, belonging, and the messy realities of chosen families with wit and profound empathy.
