Marginalia - Paperback

by Juno Morrow (Author)

Constructed of words, artwork, photos and personal artifacts, Marginalia is an intimate and unconventional account of what it means to be a hybrid.

It seamlessly interweaves experience with elements of sociology and psychology, exploring how one cultivates an identity containing multitudes-- queer, trans, mixed-race, other.
