Unsex Me Here

Bag om Unsex Me Here

""These are stories about attempting to outrun time; about trying to remember transfemme pasts; about magic touching everything except the possibility of lasting love." From the beaches of Cyprus to forbidden gardens of discovery to a small town in West Texas, Aurora Mattia weaves dreams of paradises shot through with rot. Her ecstatic, sensuous prose crystallizes into moments of longing and loss, magic and multiplicity-bringing together a cast of spiders, sibyls, angels, and goddesses in vain pursuit of their unnameable selves. Whether traveling ancient shores or struggling to leave her home, each protagonist within this collection is confronted by perils as dense with symbolism as they are laden with joy and despair. Compiled from almost a decade's worth of writing (and rewriting), Unsex Me Here is a dazzling showcase of other worlds near and distant, and the transfemmes who've found-and lost-their way through them"--
