Description
A powerful YA novel featuring a confident intersex child facing down the innumerable challenges posed by confused and controlling adults and institutions.
Corey Cobb was born intersex, but because Coreyís father and stepmother didnít make a big deal of it, it isnít until Coreyís dad dies suddenly and Corey is back with a disapproving mother that making a gender choice becomes an issue. Corey is now legally old enough to refuse medical intervention--but not old enough to prevent ìchoosing not to chooseî being considered by Coreyís mother to be a psychiatric problem. While in the youth psych ward, Corey meets Kim, diagnosed as anorexic, and together, the teens discover important, perhaps catastrophic, truths about each oneís past.
Fiction.
