Publisher's summary

Robin Gow's A Million Quiet Revolutions is a modern love story, told in verse, about two teenaged trans boys who name themselves after two Revolutionary War soldiers. A lyrical, aching young adult romance perfect for fans of The Poet X, Darius the Great Is Not Okay, and Aristotle and Dante Discover the Universe.

For as long as they can remember, Aaron and Oliver have only ever had each other. In a small town with few queer teenagers, let alone young trans men, they’ve shared milestones like coming out as trans, buying the right binders—and falling for each other.

But just as their relationship has started to blossom, Aaron moves away. Feeling adrift, separated from the one person who understands them, they seek solace in digging deep into the annals of America’s past. When they discover the story of two Revolutionary War soldiers who they believe to have been trans man in love, they’re inspired to pay tribute to these soldiers by adopting their names—Aaron and Oliver. As they learn, they delve further into unwritten queer stories, and they discover the transformative power of reclaiming one’s place in history.

Critic reviews

“Sweet details...and steadfast romance make for a compelling journey." (Publishers Weekly)

"Truthful, romantic, and compulsively readable, A Million Quiet Revolutions is filled with a million quiet revelations about living as your true self—whoever, wherever, and whenever you happen to be. I loved it.” (Dashka Slater, New York Times best-selling author of The 57 Bus)

"Gow effortlessly reminds us that we queer people join a long lineage of historical queer people who might have dreamed of us as much as we dream of them.” (Eliot Schrefer, author of National Book Award finalists Endangered and Threatened)

T4T dream!!!

as a trans puerto rican gay boy, this book is a godsend. Aaron and Oliver’s love story is captivating, well-told, complex, and beautiful. i’ve listened to it twice now, and it was amazing both times. highly recommend for any trans person looking for a book about them (also non trans people that just want a good read)
