When she takes a leap to leave Zimbabwe behind for Brighton, England, Shamiso must find a new family and a new way of living. There she falls in love for the first time with George - whose female identity, Georgie, is everything Shamiso has ever wanted or needed. But can such happiness last, when neither of them knows yet who they truly are?

From first moments to final steps, Shamiso is a thought-provoking, blazing work of modern existence and all its contradictions. Zimbabwean girl meets gender-fluid Afro-Brit boy. They can't stand each other but fall hopelessly in love, before being traumatised into separate paths by their mutual prejudices Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
