Description
In their comics debut, Theo Parish masterfully weaves an intimate and defiantly hopeful memoir about the journey one nonbinary person takes to find a home within themself. Combining traditional comics with organic journal-like interludes, Theo takes us through their experiences with the hundred arbitrary and unspoken gender binary rules of high school, from harrowing haircuts and finally the right haircut to the intersection of gender identity and sexualityand through tiny everyday moments that all led up to Theo finding the term nonbinary, which finally struck a chord.
Have you ever had one of those moments when all of a sudden things become clearlike someone just turned on a light?
A whole spectrum of people will be drawn to Theos storytelling, from trans or questioning teens and adults, to folks who devoured Gender Queer by Maia Kobabe or The Fire Never Goes Out by ND Stevenson, to any person looking to dive a little deeper into the way gender can shape identity. Throughout the book, Theos crystal-clear voice reminds the reader that its okay not to know, its okay to change your mind, and its okay to take your time finding your way home.
We are all just trying to find a place to call our own. We are all deserving of comfort and safety, a place to call home.
