On Sunday, November 22, Boekwinkel Savannah Bay in Utrecht is organizing another special edition of our Lazy Queer Sunday. To conclude Trans Awareness Week, we celebrate the visibility and strength of trans people in our own unique way.

Our special guest is writer, activist, and community builder Alejandra Ortiz, who will be presenting her new novel Once Upon a Time There Were Dolls. In this book, three friends go on a road trip to Paris. Along the way, they reminisce about their friendship in both beautiful and difficult times, and look back at everything that has changed in their lives. It is a story about friendship, grief, and the power of community. With a keen sense of drama and humor, Ortiz shows that the lives of trans women do not consist solely of struggle, but also of love, joy, mutual connection, and everyday adventures.

This event will be mostly held in English, the book is published in Dutch.
