Description
<p><i>Sideshow Concessions</i> is the first book from queer performer and scholar Lucas Crawford. A collection populated by the circus-like bodies and experiences of a narrator navigating rural pasts and urban presents, Sideshow Concessions is the unofficial story of someone who is both a bearded lady and the fattest man in the world.</p> <p><i>”Sideshow Confessions is an accessible glimpse at the absurd — a clever look at a trans narrative which explores its challenges without drowning in them… Crawford’s sense of humour is a breath of fresh air.”<b>—<i>Broken Pencil</i></b></i></p> <p>“<i>Sideshow Concessions</i> is fresh, honest, heartbreaking, and funny, with turns of phrase equally intelligent and moving.”<b>—Karen Solie</b></p>
