Riassunto

"A breathtaking archive of our community ... An absolute vital work for a precipitous time." —Lilly Wachowski, co-director of The Matrix

"Everything here is still relevant, vital, even crucial. Also? What a potent reminder to make a zine. You. Today. Interview your friends. Make a zine. What a gift." —Imogen Binnie, author of Nevada

"Who knew, back in the early 1990s, that trans people could love one another like this?" —Leah Tigers, historian, trickymothernature.com

A long-lost zine reveals the secret history of contemporary transgender culture

In 1993, Mirha Soleil-Ross and Xanthra Phillippa MacKay, fed up with a gay scene that rejected trans people and a trans scene that saw no alternative to going "stealth," began to publish the zine Gendertrash From Hell. Over four issues, they interviewed sex workers and prisoners; they printed collages, soap operas and polemics; they ran regular sections with titles like “Trannies Speak Out” and “Hooker of the Month”. They redefined transsexual culture forever, and their explosive ideas resonate deeply today.

Remastered from the original layouts, this foundational work is now available in book form for the first time, including previously-unseen drafts from the unfinished fifth issue and essays by Trish Salah and Leah Tigers. Irreverent, furious, reckless, sexy, hilarious and incisive, Gendertrash from Hell is here to set all your presuppositions on fire.
