By Torrey Peters

Service95 Recommends is the home of the books we love and reviews from our contributors. Stag Dance by Torrey Peters pushes the limits of Trans writing.

What We Say: “Fans of Detransition, Baby, buckle up – Torrey Peters is back and as audacious as ever. Stag Dance is three novellas and a novel in one, exploring Trans life, past, present and future. From the adventures of a lonely logger and the story of an obsessive boarding-school romance to the dizzying spectacle of a gender apocalypse brought about by an unstable ex-girlfriend, what ties these stories together is Torrey’s critical eye on gender and her refusal to submit to a single definition of Trans identity.” – Maria Padget

What They Say: “Hot, heartbreaking, and thrillingly victorious.” – Miranda July

Available on Bookshop.org, Waterstones, and Barnes & Noble
