Inhaltsangabe

Chris W. Kim's graphic novel Strays is an enigmatic parable of the modern city, where strangers can become friends and vice versa.

A young man flees a disaster at home and comes to live in the city with his sister. He makes ends meet by taking a job as a deliveryman--only to encounter a flood of old friends and past acquaintances on his daily route. . . . At first elated by the company of these waifs and strays, eventually their own desperation for work begins to trouble his conscience--but what happens when you can't deliver help to everyone?

Chris W. Kim's distinctively detailed graphic style embodies an elusively disquieting parable of modern isolation and the ties that bind--or fail to bind--society together.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

“All I want is a proper body…” Born as biologically female, Nathan spends his formative years facing questions without answers, social ostracism from his peers, and incomprehension from his family – because from as early as he can remember, he knows he has been born in the wrong body. But, as his family comes to recognize, a physical identity is harder to change than a piece of clothing or a haircut. So from the moment he is at last supplied with a professional term for his self-diagnosis – “gender dysphoria” – he is able to leave behind his complicated psychological history, the challenges of his self-harming, and his struggles with sexual identity, and begin the difficult process of claiming his true self.

Based on a true story, at first hand, Call Me Nathan issues a moving call for understanding, a powerful denunciation of prejudice, and a celebration of everything it means to love.
