A fearless collection of stories that celebrate the humor, darkness, and depth of emotion of the queer and trans experience that's not typically represented: liminal or uncertain identities, queer conception, and queer joy In this exuberant, prize-winning collection, queer, trans, and gender-nonconforming characters seek love and connection in hilarious and heartrending stories that reflect the complexity of our current moment. A nonbinary writer on the eve of top surgery enters into a risky affair during the height of COVID. A lesbian couple enlists a close friend as a sperm donor, plying him with a potent rainbow-colored cocktail. A lonely office worker struggling with their gender identity chaperones their nephew to a trans YouTube convention. And in the depths of a Midwestern winter, a sex-addicted librarian relies on her pet ferrets to help resist a relapse at a wild college fair. Capturing both the dark and lovable sides of the human experience, Rainbow Rainbow establishes debut author Lydia Conklin as a fearless new voice for their generation.Binding Type: HardcoverAuthor: Lydia ConklinPublisher: CatapultPublished: 05/31/2022ISBN: 9781646221011Pages: 256Weight: 1.25lbsReview Citations: Library Journal Prepub Alert 01/01/2022 pg. 10Library Journal 03/01/2022 pg. 133Publishers Weekly 03/07/2022Booklist 03/15/2022 pg. 44Kirkus Reviews 04/15/2022
