Download or read book She s Not There written by Jennifer Finney Boylan and published by Crown. This book was released on 2013-04-30 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The bestselling, seminal work of trans literature: a story of love, sex, selfhood, and understanding from Jennifer Finney Boylan When she changed genders, she changed the world. It was the groundbreaking publication of She’s Not There in 2003 that jump-started the transgender revolution. By turns hilarious and deeply moving, Boylan – a cast member on I Am Cait; an advisor to the television series Transparent, and a contributing opinion writer for the New York Times -- explores the territory that lies between men and women, examines changing friendships, and rejoices in the redeeming power of love and family. She’s Not There was one of the first works to present trans experience from the perspective of a literary novelist, opening a door to new understanding of love, sex, gender, and identity. Boylan inspired readers to ask the same questions she asked herself: What is it that makes us---ourselves? What does it mean to be a man, or a woman? How much could my husband, or wife, change—and still be recognizable as the one I love? Boylan’s humorous, wise voice helped make She’s Not There the first bestselling work by a transgender American--and transformed Boylan into a national spokeswoman for LGBTQ people, their families, and the people that love them. This updated and revised edition also includes a new epilogue from Jenny’s wife Grace; it also contains the original afterward by her friend, novelist and Pulitzer Prize winner Richard Russo. “Love will prevail,” said Boylan’s conservative mother, as she learned about her daughter’s identity. She’s Not There is the story that helped bring about a world in which that change seems almost possible.

But Jenny has other plans, which may or may not include Derek. So Derek will try anything to win her — even soliciting advice from an alien who shows up in his hometown. This alien may just be the answer to Derek’s problem, but is Derek prepared to risk starting an intergalactic war to get his girl?

Download or read book Juniper written by Thomas French and published by Little, Brown Spark. This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A micro-preemie fights for survival in this extraordinary and gorgeously told memoir by her parents, both award-winning journalists. Juniper French was born four months early, at 23 weeks' gestation. She weighed 1 pound, 4 ounces, and her twiggy body was the length of a Barbie doll. Her head was smaller than a tennis ball, her skin was nearly translucent, and through her chest you could see her flickering heart. Babies like Juniper, born at the edge of viability, trigger the question: Which is the greater act of love -- to save her, or to let her go? Kelley and Thomas French chose to fight for Juniper's life, and this is their incredible tale. In one exquisite memoir, the authors explore the border between what is possible and what is right. They marvel at the science that conceived and sustained their daughter and the love that made the difference. They probe the bond between a mother and a baby, between a husband and a wife. They trace the journey of their family from its fragile beginning to the miraculous survival of their now thriving daughter.
Download or read book The Duplication House written by Nathan Singer and published by Down & Out Books. This book was released on 2023-09-18 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emily Conlin, missing for twenty years in rural West Virginia, has recently been found alive in the forest, bloody and bedraggled. Now, with the “help” of a down and out novelist, she is finally ready to tell the story…but whose story is it? The Duplication House is a twisted tale of the constructed self, identity in confined spaces, and all the dark things deep down. Just to let you know, should you decide to stay, there will be screaming. Critical Acclaim for Nathan Singer: “Nathan Singer’s The Duplication House is at once a gleefully transgressive psychosexual phantasmagoria of Grand Guignol grotesqueries and a gimlet-eyed postmodern rumination on the creative process. Take a peek inside—I double-dare you.” —Chris Holm, Anthony Award winning author of The Killing Kind and Child Zero “The hip new grand master of America’s literate underbelly.” —Mike Magnuson, author of The Right Man for the Job “The master of the literary pulp thriller. Singer’s work has beauty and brutality in a balance no other writer can match.” —Steve Weddle, author of Country Hardball “Nathan Singer is an urban wordsmith that blisters the pages with language only he can scribe.” —Frank Bill, author of The Savage “He’s the kind of writer who’ll just destroy you, in all the right ways.” —Benjamin Whitmer, author of Cry Father “[H]e is the heir apparent to Hubert Selby, Jr. Singer’s electric prose is impossible to walk away from, and will stay with you long after you’ve finished the last page.” —Tasha Alexander, author of A Fatal Waltz “Singer’s prose is as stark and brutal as the world he describes, but it is also riveting. It carries the kind of redemptive power that reminds us why we read novels in the first place.” —In Denver Times “Nathan Singer is what a writer is meant to be: daring, unique, original, and insightful.” —Reed Farrel Coleman, New York Times bestselling author of The Devil Wins “Nathan Singer…the top of the list of America’s best young novelists.” —John Connolly, author of The Book of Lost Things “Singer’s percussive prose [works] its magic.” —Booklist “This is a writer with balls bigger than my entire head.” —J.D. Rhoades, author of The Devil’s Right Hand
