Please Miss: A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Penis
Green shoots, green leaves, California green vesicles be-neath the California green-brown mud. A hormonal transition is a new start, but it is not a new start like a shoot emerges from the mud: it is a fresh start constructed from the green plastics one has to hand. A speculative memoir of gender transition and recovery from addiction, re-fracted through pop culture, queer theory, film, TV, literature, and (what feels like) stand-up comedy - like The Argonauts caught in a hall of mirrors, with a lot more sex and humour.
