Description

Secret Passages is an inventive autobiography that explores the girlhood Axelle Lenoir never had. Many LGBTQ adults reflect on their youth and wonder what might have been, but Axelle makes this metaphor real in her unpredictable way.

The book begins with the death of her "cosmic twin" and takes readers on a rollicking ride through childhood antics set in 1985 small-town Québec. We meet Axelle as a rebellious little girl who dreads Grade 1, is captivated by the spooky forest near her house, and her lively family, including long-suffering parents.

The comic-strip style anecdotes are packed with pop-culture parodies, but Axelle's existential crisis soon mutates the narrative, building to a mind-bending climax. This surreal tale is reminiscent of Calvin & Hobbes and will appeal to readers who enjoy imaginative storytelling.
