Description
Burning Butch: A Blistering Memoir of Self-Discovery and Resilience. This powerful memoir is a testament to the author's courage in sharing their personal story, offering a unique perspective on identity, family, and community. After a painful divorce, R/B Mertz's life is torn apart, forcing them to navigate a world that seems determined to suppress their true self. As they grapple with their own desires and sense of belonging, Mertz finds solace in the world of movies and musicals, and later, in a conservative Catholic college. This coming-of-age story is a heart-wrenching exploration of the challenges faced by young people trying to find their place in the world, and the importance of embracing one's true identity. With unflinching honesty, Mertz shares their experiences, revealing a complex and deeply personal journey towards self-discovery and acceptance.
