A propos de cet article

Hardcover. Its 2003, and artist Dawn Levit is stuck. A bookbinder who works in conservation at the Met, she spends her free time scouting the citys street art, hoping something might spark inspiration. Instead, everything looks like a dead end. And art isnt the only thing that feels wrong: wherever she turns, her gender identity clashes with the rest of her life. Her relationship, once anchored by shared queerness, is falling apart as her boyfriend Lukas increasingly seems to be attracted to Dawn only when shes at her most masculine. Meanwhile at work, Dawn has to present as female, even on the days when that isnt true. Either way, her difference feels like a liability. Then, one day at work, Dawn finds something hidden behind the endpaper of an old book: the torn-off cover of a 50s lesbian pulp novel, Turn Her About. On the front is a campy illustration of a woman looking into a handheld mirror and seeing a mans face. And on the back is a love letter. Dawn latches onto the coincidence, becoming obsessed with tracking down the notes author. Her fixation only increases when her best friend Jae is injured in a hate crime, for which Dawn feels responsible. As Dawn searches for the letters author, she is also looking for herself. She tries to understand how to live in a world that doesnt see her as she truly is, how to get unstuck in her gender, and how to rediscover her art, and she cant shake the feeling that the notes author might be able to help guide her to the answers. A sharply written, deeply evocative story about what it means to live authenticallyeven within an identity whose parameters have not yet been definedEndpapers will appeal to readers of queer, nonbinary, or trans fiction like Torrey Peters Detransition, Baby as well as anyone who loves character-driven, setting-rich stories like Tell the Wolves Im Home or The Immortalists. A page-turning, character-driven story set in 2003 New York City about a genderqueer book conservator who feels trapped by her gender presentation, her ill-fitting relationship, and her artistic block, as she discovers a decades-old hidden queer love letter and becomes obsessed with tracking down its author.
