Travis Alabanza writes about gender and its possibilities with such generosity and ease even the most provocative suggestions start to seem obvious, despite their challenges to society at large. Both profound and witty -- SHON FAYE, author of THE TRANSGENDER ISSUE
A change-maker shaping the culture of tomorrow -- BERNARDINE EVARISTO
[Travis Alabanza is] a big voice in multiple intersecting communities . . . This is a book that is supposed to make other people feel seen, heard and help them understand themselves. It's brilliant -- JAMEELA JAMIL
Travis is an incredible thinker, philosopher and human being -- VICKY FEATHERSTONE * * Guardian * *
Flips the well thumbed script that casts oppressed people as lead in the tale of their mistreatment, boldly interrogating the faults of a society that allows such mistreatment to occur . . . Alabanza's lyrical style and theatrical grounding is the book's lifeblood * * Gay Times * *
Lucid and glorious. Truth that goes on and on making room for itself -- YRSA DALEY-WARD

Travis' words have power. An essential read for everyone -- SAM SMITH
Brilliant . . . This is a book which everyone can learn from, whether you're a cis person who hasn't yet interrogated how your options are shut down or any flavour of trans person pushed towards trying to be less visible but maybe less of yourself for having the options stolen away -- CHRISTINE BURNS
