Super Late Bloomer - My Early Days in Transition

Zusatztext "Kaye skillfully and effectively relates the daily indignities borne by trans women and the triumphs and quiet joys as well. Her tenacity in this hopeful story will be resonant for readers going through personal transitions of many kinds." (Publisher's Weekly) Informationen zum Autor Julia Kaye is an artist and illustrator whose Up and Out webcomic has garnered hundreds of thousands of readers and wide critical praise. Her work has appeared on the upcoming Disney show Big City Greens ! in Maxim and Cosmopolitan ! and on BuzzFeed and GoComics. Julia lives in Los Angeles.   Zusammenfassung Instead of a traditional written diary, Julia Kaye has always turned to art as a means of self-reflection. So when she began her gender transition in 2016, she decided to use her popular webcomic, Up and Out , to process her journey and help others with similar struggles realize they weren’t alone.   Julia’s poignant, relatable comics honestly depict her personal ups and downs while dealing with the various issues involved in transitioning—from struggling with self-acceptance and challenging societal expectations, to moments of self-love and joy. Super Late Bloomer both educates and inspires, as Julia faces her difficulties head-on and commits to being wholly, authentically who she was always meant to be.
