![]() ![]() My partner’s job takes a lot of her time. My partner’s been at a birth for three days, and I’ve been minding children. Niko Stratis: It’s going well, how are you? ![]() Imogen Binnie: Hey, what’s happening? How’s it going? ![]() Note: This interview has been edited for clarity and length. And make notes in the margin, share those with a friend, or some newly realized trans woman in your life. Nevada is out now, and I cannot recommend enough that you read it. When it was announced Nevada would be getting a reissue in 2022, my mind immediately raced to the possibility I might get to chat with Binnie, who wrote the book that helped me feel seen as a trans woman when nothing else did, if I played my cards right. Nevada has been out of print for a number of years, and a lot of us who have read it have done so on the graces of an older trans somewhere, passing us a copy and telling us to read it. It’s unapologetic, messy, funny, heartbreaking, frustrating - and when it’s over, you want to talk about it with everyone. I think I’ve waited my whole trans career to talk to Imogen Binnie, who wrote Nevada, a seminal novel originally published in 2013 about being a trans woman.
