By Cooper Lee Bombardier, 2020
Cooper Lee Bombardier weaves together a lyrical blend of personal essays, poetry, and interview transcripts, set against the backdrops of working-class New England, the queer punk scene of early ’90s San Francisco, and the gritty deserts of New Mexico. By documenting trans history through his life in the arts, trans elder Bombardier lends much-needed insight into the lives, coming out, and transitions of older transgender people. Pass with Care: Memoirs offers a bridge between queer and trans generations, revealing a unique reckoning with what it means to become a man today.
