I am so happy to see the body of trans literature expanding, and Max Delsohn's Crawl is a great addition to that work. These stories are honest and committed to speaking truths, even when those truths are difficult or confusing.

Situations like these (as presented in the book's promo material) arise:"What to do when starting testosterone unlocks a newfound desire for men? How to respond when your boss’s boss asks if you’ve had 'the surgery' and then requests you talk her niece out of show more transitioning? What obligation do you have to intervene in the faltering mental health of the baby trans drug dealer you’ve met only once while tripping on the acid he sold you?"

Crawl gives readers a series of portraits of trans masculine life in Seattle in the 2010s. The stories are long enough that the reader can sink into them, but there's still room for eleven of them, so the reader gets breadth as well as depth.

I received a free electronic review copy of this title from the publisher via Edelweiss; the opinions are my own.
