About this listen

Longlisted for the Women's Prize 2021

Reese nearly had it all: a loving relationship with Amy, an apartment in New York, a job she didn't hate. She'd scraped together a life previous generations of trans women could only dream of; the only thing missing was a child. Then everything fell apart, and three years on, Reese is still in self-destruct mode, avoiding her loneliness by sleeping with married men.

When her ex calls to ask if she wants to be a mother, Reese finds herself intrigued. After being attacked in the street, Amy de-transitioned to become Ames, changed jobs and, thinking he was infertile, started an affair with his boss Katrina. Now Katrina's pregnant. Could the three of them form an unconventional family - and raise the baby together?

Wonderful - I couldn’t stop listening

An insightful (and funny) deep dive into what it means to be both a woman and a mother. Thank you Torrey - I’ve reflected a great deal on my experience as a cis woman (& my heteronormative pathway to motherhood)!
