Sobre IBD

Once upon a time, our ancestors told tales of asexuality, symbolic stories that hint at other identities: a princess who grows a beard to escape marriage, a knight who forsakes his wife’s bed to become a werewolf, a goddess with detachable parts, a planet where everyone is asexual.Drawn from many times and places, retold and reimagined for the 21st century, Elizabeth Hopkinson’s second book of myths and tales brings asexuality out of the closet and gives it the history it has been denied.
