Reviews: Fine (13)
“Exploratory and expressive”
(Paperback)
by H is for Hazel
With 'Fine', Rhea Ewing joins Alison Bechdel, Meg-John Barker, and many more in queer non-fiction in using the graphic novel as a medium to explore ideas and talk about queerness. In this case, Ewing is focused on gender - what is it? What does it mean? And how do you know what yours is? Partly biographical and partly based on a series of interviews, Ewing shares with us a wide range of stances, opinions, and experiences as well as reflections on their personal journey. It's a fascinating book, well-worth the read, and I appreciate that Ewing doesn't try to give us any firm answers. Instead of solving a puzzle, the book opens up possibilities, giving the reader space to consider their own feelings about gender and what they might mean. It's a mind-expanding and thoughtful read, and I would highly recommend it to anyone curious! I received a copy of the book for free in exchange for an honest review.

“Delightful!”
(Paperback)
by Manon Divet
Rhea Ewin's work is honest and enlightening. Not only have they conducted a rich series of exceptional quality and focus but they have also taken the risk of telling their own story, struggles with identity and growth through art and dialogue. Even as a person interested in gender and queer conversations, I have learnt SO much. This is exceptional.
“Truly Eye-Opening”
(Paperback)
by Charlie Halfhide
As a trans bookseller it is so important to me to keep up to date on trans-focused publications, so when I received a copy of 'Fine' I was absolutely over the moon. These fascinating accounts and perspectives from people all over the gender spectrum really encouraged me to think over my own experiences of gender non-conformity and consider new perspectives on my own identity. Overall, Ewing's gorgeous illustrations made this an accessible, fun and provoking read. I can't wait to see what else they do in future!
