Transposes

Transposes / Dylan Edwards 115 pgs.

This graphic novel tells the story of seven people who have undergone change.  The author has interviewed subjects who identified themselves as queer-identified transmen.  These people trusted Edwards with their stories and he has presented them with wonderful illustrations.  The stories are diverse and show that the journey for each is both different and the same.  How the world sees people and reacts to them is important and can be affirming or confusing.  This compilation of stories may help those who are confused to see things more clearly.  Have you ever wondered about who you are or who you want to be?  Even if you have not questioned your gender or your sexuality, the themes here are universal. Change can be good, can be confusing, can make your life quite different and also can make it ok.
