At Heaven's center, Whitney seeks to understand their relationship to their mother and grandmother, those first windows into womanhood and all its consequences. Whitney retraces a roving youth in deeply observant, psychedelic prose—all the while folding in the work of thinkers like Judith Butler, Donna Haraway, and C. Riley Snorton—to engage transness and the breathing, morphing nature of selfhood.

A series of blood tests, hospital visits, and repeated misdiagnoses ensue, until the truth is finally revealed: Jonathan is HIV-positive.

In a book rich with remembrances of the Pacific Northwest of the 1970s-1990s, Cris Harris pulls the listener through turning points in a household crowded with abuse, addiction, neglect, acceptance, and grief, as well as the healing that comes after reconciliation.

But here fact is more fantastical than any novel. We follow our hero from Bermondsey enfant-terrible to Valencian grande dame...
