Join qUCL for this exciting literary event! Trans writers Cat Fitzpatrick and Bishakh Som read from their award-winning works and engage in a lively Q&A about trans and queer writing and publishing.
Cat Fitzpatrick will read from their Lambda Literary Award-nominated The Call-Out; "A fast-paced, debut tragicomedy of manners written in verse about queer (mostly trans) women that is funny, literary, philosophical, witty, sometimes bitchy and sometimes heartbreaking."

Bishakh Som will read from Apsara Engine, winner of the 2020 Lambda Literary Award for best LGBTQ+ Comics; "By turns fantastical and familiar, this graphic short story collection is immersed in questions of gender, the body, and existential conformity."
