Description
Little Fish by Casey Plett is a powerful and poignant novel that explores the complexities of identity and family history. When evidence surfaces suggesting her late grandfather may have been transgender, Wendy Reimer sets out to unravel the mystery of his truth. As she navigates the challenges of her own life - including struggles with addiction, sex work, and suicidal thoughts - Wendy becomes increasingly drawn to the lost pieces of her grandfather's past. This heart-wrenching story is a powerful exploration of the winter of discontent in the life of one transgender woman, where the past and future become irrevocably entwined. Alternating between warmth and darkness, Little Fish is a deeply human and deeply moving novel that sheds light on the experiences of trans women and their families.
