Kobabe grew up not knowing the words for what e was — the memoir traces eir path from childhood through discovering the terms nonbinary and asexual and finding, in language, something that fit. Kobabe uses comics to tell this story because the visual form lets em show the interior experience of gender in ways prose can't quite reach. The most banned graphic memoir in America — which tells you everything about who it threatens and why. A dispatch from inside the experience of gender nonconformity that is warm, specific, funny, and completely honest about the confusion that precedes clarity.
