A personal revolution unfolds in essays and poems exploring gender, identity, and transformation.
Dream Rooms is a deeply personal exploration of identity and change. Set in the years leading up to River Halen coming out as trans, this collection of essays and poems delves into the hidden aspects of daily life, addressing themes of personal revolution and self-discovery. What does it mean to take a stranger's pet rabbit to the vet, confront a moth infestation, or realize your bookshelf is full of problematic works?
Through queer and trans lenses, Halen invites readers to a space where fear and desire intertwine, transforming common knowledge. This collection is for those seeking to understand gender identity, navigate personal change, and connect with others through shared experiences. Discover a new way to hold what we think we know, or drop it on the ground.
