Independent,
 
Best Books to Look Out for in 2025
'Hot, heartbreaking and thrillingly victorious.' 
--- Miranda July 
'Potent and surprising and takes no prisoners.' 
--- Carmen Maria Machado 
'Torrey Peters is truly a writer like no other. In 
Stag Dance
, she weaves astonishing connections between nature and violence, masculinity and vulnerability, womanhood and constraint, love and betrayals.' 
--- Shon Faye 
'A brilliant literary kaleidoscope. Peters shatters the familiar in four bold and imaginative tales, each powerful enough to reshape our understanding of transness and where we find it.' 
--- Nicola Dinan
Trans life past, present and future is explored in this kaleidoscopic follow-up to the Women's Prize-nominated
 
Detransition, Baby
. 
Deep in the forest, a group of restless lumberjacks working an illegal logging outfit plan a winter dance that some will volunteer to attend as women; the broadest, strongest axeman finds himself caught in a rivalry with a pretty, young jack that culminates in jealousy, betrayal and an astonishing spectacle of transition. Meanwhile, in other times and places, the gender apocalypse is brought about by an unstable ex-girlfriend; an illicit boarding-school romance surfaces intrigue and cruelty; and a Las Vegas party weekend turns dark when a young crossdresser must choose between a thrilling mystery man or a veteran trans woman offering unglamorous sisterhood.
In this quartet of tales, Torrey Peters' keen eye for the rough edges of desire reveals fresh possibilities. Acidly funny, boldly inventive and breathtaking in scope, 
Stag Dance
 provokes and unsettles, inspires and delights.
