A slippery novel set in the Bay Area of the early aughts, where femininity, race, and class tangle together. 2021 LAMBDA LITERARY AWARD WINNERFinalist for the Ferro-Grumley Award for LGBTQ Fiction
Neotenica is a novel of encounters: casual sex, arranged-marriage dates, cops, rowdy teenagers, lawyers, a Sapphic flirtation, a rival, a child, and two important dogs. At the center of it are Young Ae, a Korean-born ballet dancer turned PhD student, and her husband, a Korean-American male who inhabits an interior femininity, neither transgender nor homosexual, but a strong, visceral femininity nonetheless. This novel is an adrenaline filled ride sliding across the surface of desire and chance through the quotidian turned playful.
