Unser neuer Redakteur Holger Wacker hat mit #TellMeImWorthless von #AlisonRumfitt ziemlich heftigen Horror rezensiert:

"Tell Me I’m Worthless ist (...) ein Horrorroman, der Mängel aufweist und lesenswert ist, dessen Inhaltswarnung durchaus ernst genommen werden sollte. Trans Frau Alison Rumfitt präsentiert interessante Figuren und einiges an Transpolitik, darunter Gedanken und Positionen zu TERF... "
