At once a love letter and challenge to the traditional transgender memoir, Fierce Femmes and Notorious Liars is a playful, surrealist dance through queer coming of age.

A haunted young girl (who happens to be a kung-fu expert and pathological liar) runs away from an oppressive city, where the sky is always grey, in search of love and sisterhood - and finds herself in a magical place known only as the Street of Miracles. There, she is quickly adopted into a vigilante gang of glamorous warrior femmes called the Lipstick Lacerators, whose mission is to scour the Street of violent men and avenge murdered trans women everywhere. But when disaster strikes, can our intrepid heroine find the truth within herself in order to protect her new family and heal her broken heart?

… and humane work. A tale told with compassion and gentle ferocity. In an odd way the style is somewhat Faulkner-esque.

Touching

This is an exception piece of literature, amongst my top 10 favorite books of all time, nestled right above 100 Years of Solitude. It’s been everything I’ve ever been longing for from any work, written or otherwise.

This novel memoir is in my top 5. Incredible work, story, characters, and imagery. Read it. Buy it. Gift it.

Wow.

A fast, furious collision of darkness and whimsy. Birds of Prey with transsexuals. Could be more energetically read, but the narration does the job.

A lot is made of how this novel abrasively skewers the conventions of transgender autobiographical storytelling, but it has a great deal of affection for the tradition as well. Would recommended reading alongside Janet Mock’s Redefining Realness.
