Bridget Liang

    Bridget Liang je autorem, jehož dílo se hluboce zabývá průsečíky identity a společenských struktur. Liangův psací styl je často ovlivněn jejich zkušenostmi jako queer, transfeminní a neurodivergentní osoby, což se projevuje v tématech, která zkoumají hranice a složitost lidské existence. Prostřednictvím uměleckého výzkumu a fikce Liang přispívá k diskuzím o intersektionalitě a vytváří prostor pro marginalizované hlasy. Jejich práce vyzývá čtenáře k zamyšlení nad mocenskými dynamikami a k přijetí rozmanitosti.

      Logan Osborne knows he likes boys, but has not come out to his family or at school, and no one knows that he likes to sometimes wear girls' clothes and makeup. When he starts at a school for the arts he finds a wider range of gender and orientation being accepted. Logan is attracted to Kyle, who has gay dads. But Kyle is straight. Logan finds he doesn't like the way gay boys treat him, and a disturbing hookup with a boy who is fetishistic about Logan's half-Asian background makes Logan even more confused about what he wants and who he is. Encouraged and supported by his friends at school, Logan experiments with nail polish and more feminine clothes in public. Logan begins questioning his gender and decides to use they pronouns while trying to figure things out. Logan meets a classmate's chosen mother, who is a transgender Chinese woman, and begins to come to terms with their gender identity. Realizing they are not a gay boy, but a transgender girl, Logan asks for people to call them Veronica. As a girl, does Veronica stand a chance with Kyle?
