"Often quite funny . . . The layers of identity and story in the memoir and Som's fluid approach to representing the self, feel impressively easy, unbelabored." --Hillary Chute, The New York Times Book Review


A Lambda Literary Award Finalist


The meticulous artwork of transgender artist Bishakh Som gives us the rare opportunity to see the world through another lens.


This exquisite graphic novel memoir by a transgender artist, explores the concept of identity by inviting the reader to view the author moving through life as she would have us see her, that is, as she sees herself. Framed with a candid autobiographical narrative, this book gives us the opportunity to enter into the author's daily life and explore her thoughts on themes of gender and sexuality, memory and urbanism, love and loss.
