How can the writing of trans lives move beyond the confessional memoir? Three different writers with three different trans lives and three different styles read selections from current or forthcoming works that push the boundaries of what trans writing can become. Featuring Jamie Hood, Jeanne Thornton, and McKenzie Wark.

 

Copies of McKenzie Wark‘s recently published Reverse Cowgirl (Semiotext(e)) will be available for purchase. To reserve a copy please write to us at contact@bgsqd.com.
