Little F

Praise for Little F: “A comical, tender, queer coming-of-age, where the journey is the destination.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)“Dazzling, daring, and darkly hilarious, Little F is a novel that breathes new life into the gay coming-of-age story from a writer whose work has helped define the tradition of queer writing. Gritty with a hopeful twist, this gorgeous book is sure to join the canon of classic young adult coming-out fiction.” —Kai Cheng Thom, author of Fierce Femmes and Notorious Liars “Little F is the book I’ve been needing all my life. It’s like Michelle Tea has a magnifying glass pointed straight into every angsty teenage queer's soul. I can't wait for everyone to meet Spencer, her heartbreakingly tender and deliciously messy hero, whose cross-country odyssey is equal parts To Wong Foo and My So-Called Life. I saw the best parts of myself in this book. The anger. The hunger. The private, indestructible yearning. I laughed so hard I cried.” —Edgar Gomez, author of High-Risk Homosexual Other praise for Michelle Tea's work""Michelle Tea's is a singular voice — brilliant but also irreverent, optimistic but also abrasive, as curious as it is critical. . . . Reading Tea can feel like conversing with your smartest friend, and it's one of those hangouts you never want to end."" —Buzzfeed ""Tea’s conversational tone and her way of writing deeply personal experience . . . presents a very necessary counter-narrative to mainstream histories of American punk, feminism, and sexual identity."" —The Brooklyn Rail ""Tea’s writing continues to make the world worth living in."" —Lambda Literary Review
