2020 Stonewall — Israel Fishman Non-fiction Award Honor Book
In 2014, Maia Kobabe, who uses e/em/eir pronouns, thought that a comic of reading statistics would be the last autobiographical work e would ever create. At the time, it was the only thing e felt comfortable sharing with the world. But sometimes, the stories we need to tell find their way onto the page anyway.
Gender Queer is Maia’s intensely cathartic and beautifully illustrated journey of self-discovery. Through honest, evocative artwork, e charts the confusion of adolescent crushes, the challenge of coming out to family and society, the joy of bonding with friends over erotic gay fanfiction, and the vulnerability of navigating a body that doesn’t always feel like home.
What began as a way to help eir family understand what it means to be nonbinary and asexual has become something much larger: a touchstone for anyone questioning their identity, and an essential guide for those who want to better understand the people they love.
This groundbreaking graphic memoir offers:
