Sideshow Concessions Lucas Crawford

Sideshow Concessions is the first book from queer performer and scholar Lucas Crawford. A collection populated by the circus-like bodies and experiences of a narrator navigating rural pasts and urban presents, Sideshow Concessions is the unofficial story of someone who is both a bearded lady and the fattest man in the world.

Sideshow Confessions is an accessible glimpse at the absurd -- a clever look at a trans narrative which explores its challenges without drowning in them... Crawford's sense of humour is a breath of fresh air.--Broken Pencil

"Sideshow Concessions is fresh, honest, heartbreaking, and funny, with turns of phrase equally intelligent and moving."--Karen Solie
