Yesterday, Elliot Page dropped the first look at the cover (and title) of his forthcoming memoir, and trans folks who are not me were extremely hyped.

The memoir, which comes out June 6, 2023, will cover Page’s story in detail. “Trans people are facing increasing attacks, from physical violence to the banning of healthcare, and our humanity is regularly “debated” in the media,” Page wrote in the caption. “The act of writing, reading, and sharing the multitude of our experiences is an important step in standing up to those who wish to silence and harm us.”

The picture of the book is here on Elliot's instagram page along with his full message about it:

I suspect this will be a very good read, I'll be picking up a copy.

As an aside... I'd really like to see someone get a Stainless Steel Rat series into production with Elliot starring as Slippery Jim. He looks almost exactly as I've pictured him in my head ever since first reading the books back in the early 80's.
