A Natural History of Transition
A Natural History of Transition | Callum Angus
3 posts | 1 read | 4 to read
Fiction. Short Stories. LGBTQIA Studies. A NATURAL HISTORY OF TRANSITION is a collection of short stories that disrupts the notion that trans people can only have one transformation. Like the landscape studied over eons, change does not have an expiration date for these trans characters, who grow as tall as buildings, turn into mountains, unravel hometown mysteries, and give birth to cocoons. Portland-based author Callum Angus infuses his work with a mix of alternative history, horror, and a reality heavily dosed with magic. Callum Angus is one of the younger writers I'm most excited by, with a mind full of marvels and an ear to match. Every story surprises; every sentence strives gorgeously toward music. This is writing as transition, as entrancement, as transcendence.--Garth Greenwell

What an extraordinary collection of short stories. Callum Angus takes the overdone theme of transition for trans characters and in these speculative stories creates something unique, surprising, thought-provoking. All the stories went in a direction I didn't expect. They blend keen observation on contemporary life with fabulist elements. In one story a character decides that a simple gender transition is not enough--they would like to be a rock.
