El arte de ser normal (Edición mexicana)

Wie is nou normaal?

O livro se destaca não apenas pelo sensível retrato da vida de um adolescente transgênero, mas também pela construção vívida e convincente dos personagens, capaz de manter o leitor lutando por eles ao longo de todos os obstáculos que são obrigados a transpor. – The Guardian Um livro emocionante e envolvente. – The Telegraph David Piper tem 14 anos e um desejo: "Quero ser uma menina". Mas este é um segredo que ele compartilha apenas com Essie e Felix, seus únicos amigos, pelo menos até a chegada de Leo Danton à escola Parque Éden. Apesar de muito diferentes e cada um guardando um segredo próprio, David e Leo iniciam uma profunda amizade, que é a base do elogiado romance de estreia da atriz e escritora britânica Lisa Williamson. Com diálogos engraçados e relatando situações cotidianas na vida de adolescentes, a autora consegue abordar a delicada e muito atual questão da identidade de gênero de maneira leve e nada apelativa, numa narrativa que conquista o leitor da primeira à última linha.

Je ne suis pas gay. Je suis juste une fille coincee dans un corps de mec. Traduit par Mathilde Tamae-Bouhon.
