‘A breath of fresh air . . . Anyone expecting a hand-holding guidebook will be disappointed by the candour, complexity and subjectivity of None of the Above. There's no memoir like it published in the UK . . . Alabanza's memoir offers welcome nuance to those willing to listen’
Independent        

‘Travis Alabanza writes about gender and its possibilities with such generosity and ease even the most provocative suggestions start to seem obvious, despite their challenges to society at large. This anti-memoir, which is at times both profound and funny, will make anyone question the stories we tell about ourselves, how we tell them and even who the telling is for’
SHON FAYE, author of THE TRANSGENDER ISSUE        

‘A change-maker shaping the culture of tomorrow’

‘Travis is an incredible thinker, philosopher and human being’
VICKY FEATHERSTONE, Guardian        

‘Flips the well thumbed script that casts oppressed people as lead in the tale of their mistreatment, boldly interrogating the faults of a society that allows such mistreatment to occur . . . Alabanza’s lyrical style and theatrical grounding is the book’s lifeblood’
Gay Times

YRSA DALEY-WARD

SAM SMITH

CHRISTINE BURNS
