Riverrun is a novel that talks about the rite of passage in the life of a young gay man who grew up in a colorful and chaotic dictatorship. Shaped in the form of a memoir, it glides from childhood to young adulthood, When a Father’s Son Becomes His Daughter by Meredith Talusan In this memoir, she deals with her complicated relationship with her father as it intersects with her trans-ness and Filipina-ness. It echoes a narrative familiar to many trans folk, especially in the country: The family members that accept and support you will also simultaneously push you into sexist gender roles, with transwomen silenced and forced to act demure.
