Acclaimed author of Little Fish and A Dream of a Woman, Casey Plett presents a new edition of the acclaimed debut story collection Safe Girl to Love. Back in print after a long absence these stories, shiny with whiskey and prairie sunsets, rattling subways and neglected cats, feature young trans women stumbling through loss, sex, harassment, and show growing up as a trans girl can be charming, funny, frustrating, or sad, but never will it be predictable.
