Book Event: Denne Michell Norris

Book Launch: Both/And: Essays by Trans and Gender-Nonconforming Writers of Color

Featuring editor Denne Michele Norris

And contributors TBA!

Local author Denne Michele Norris (When the Harvest Comes) launches Both/And, a powerful anthology featuring 17 essays by acclaimed and emerging trans and gender-nonconforming people of color—including writers Akwaeke Emezi, Tanaïs, and Meredith Talusan; activist Raquel Willis; and RuPaul’s Drag Race star Peppermint. Inspired by Electric Literature’s groundbreaking series and edited by the first Black, openly trans editor-in-chief of a major literary publication, Both/And uplifts and amplifies stories of queer joy, heartbreak, rage, and self-discovery. A vital depiction of real trans lives from trans points of view, Both/And comes at a time when these perspectives are most urgent and valuable. Editor Norris is joined by several of the book's contributors for an in-depth panel discussion, before an audience Q&A and signing.
