Now in paperback! Longlisted for the National Book Award. Named a best cover of the year by PRINT Magazine and top debut novel of 2024 by Kirkus. In between the space of time when Ezra lights themself on fire and when Ezra dies the world of this book flashes before their eyes. Everyone Ezra's ever loved, every place they've felt queer and at home, or queer and out of place, reveals itself in an instant. Unfolding in fragments of memory, Ezra dissolves into the family, religion, desire, losses, pains and joys that made them into the person that's decided on this final act of protest.
Told in lyric fragments that span both lifetimes and geography,Yr Deadis a queer, Jewish, diasporic coming of age story that questions how our historical memory shapes our political and emotional present. Visceral, propulsive, and at turns fluorescently beautiful and fluorescently tragic,Yr Deadis the electric debut novel from award-winning writerSam Sax, one of our most dynamic and imaginative writers.More Information
