The exploration of trans identity and its intersection with madness, illness, and disability forms the core of this work. Awkward-Rich critiques the disavowal of these themes in trans studies, advocating for a trans criticism that embraces maladjustment. By examining the historical context of transgender and disabled identities in the early twentieth century and analyzing contemporary transmasculine literature, he argues that embracing these complexities can illuminate the intricate relationships between trans, feminist, and queer discourses, ultimately enriching their evolution.
