Description: If you look for yourself in the past and see nothing, how do you know who you are? How do you know that you are supposed to be here? With sympathy and cutting insight, Ottoman offers a tour de force exploration of contemporary trans identity.
Brief description: EE Ottoman grew up surrounded by the farmlands and forests of Upstate New York. They started writing as soon as they learned how and have yet to stop. Ottoman attended Earlham College and graduated with a degree in history before going on to receive a graduate degree in history as well. These days they divide their time between history, writing, and book preservation. Ottoman is also a disabled, queer, trans dude whose correct pronouns are: they/them/their or he/him/his. Mostly, though, they are a person who is passionate about history, stories, and the spaces between the two.
