Description
Fierce Femmes and Notorious Liars: A Dangerous Trans Girl's Confabulous Memoir by Kai Cheng Thom is a sensational coming-of-age story about a young Asian trans girl who runs away from her abusive home to find her true family among a group of larger-than-life trans femmes. They live in a mysterious pleasure district known only as the Street of Miracles, where they blossom into the women they've always dreamed of being. When one of their number is brutally murdered, the protagonist joins her sisters in forming a vigilante gang to fight back against the transphobes and violent johns that stalk the Street. But when things go terribly wrong, she must find the truth within herself to stop the violence and discover what it means to grow up and find her family. This memoir is a thrilling tale of self-discovery, identity, and survival, set against the vibrant backdrop of a mysterious and often violent world.
