A dark, satirical twist on the difficulties of gender-transition, also affirming the fluid nature of human sexuality. The bi transgender protagonist, Steven/Stephany, desperately journeys between New Zealand and Indonesia in her search for a new spirituality, adopting Sufism and silence as ways of not being ‘clocked’ as a trans woman, but ultimately finding she must speak up publicly for who she really is.
Transgender author of universalist direction informed by depth-psychology; writing trans characters; exploring psyche, spirituality, western society and world cultures through literary fiction.
