Description

Hijab Butch Blues: A Memoir by Lamya H This powerful memoir explores the complexities of identity, faith and belonging. When 14-year-old Lamya discovers a passage in her Quran class that challenges traditional notions of femininity, she begins to question everything about herself. With unflinching honesty, Lamya recounts her journey as a queer teenager navigating the Middle Eastern world, her experiences with immigration and coming out in the US, and her search for meaning through her faith. Raw and deeply personal, this is a story that will resonate with anyone who has ever struggled to find their place in the world. Lamya's unique voice and perspective offer a fresh and important contribution to conversations about power, justice, healing and devotion.
