Trifles returns with the second appointment of its new format. The bookshop of Rome Sortingfor the LGBT History Monthwill present two fummettist3 italian3, Alec Thirty And Ariel Victoriand their works that have both at their core self discovery.
Alec Thirty23 years old and student of graphics applied to publishing, in Beard. Story of how I was born twice edited by Laterza Publishersplumbs the transition path of the protagonist, Ale.
I was born Lisa, but inside I’ve always been Ale. I just have to give myself consent to be myself. Because in the end, in your depths, you know who you are. Even if it’s not easy to get there.
Ale crosses a path made of requests as “it will always be me?”, “My dog will still recognize me?” or “I will be able to continue dancing to Beyoncé songs?”, but also of unexpected goals. From the mother’s reactions to the first meeting with the psychologist, come on relationships that change, with friends and girlfriends, to love.
To get to find out that the real question it’s not what it means to be a man to be a woman, but what it means to be yourself.
Ariel Victorico-founder and president of Coat hanger Press (an independent label and winner of the awards for self-production in Lucca C&G and ARFestival), is an illustrator and cartoonist freelancing and Art Director for Book on a Tree.
With little waitingedited by Asterisk Editionsdraw a love in colors bdsm with pastel and delicate colors in sharp contrast with the idea that prejudice and ignorance have built in the collective imagination, leaving only the naturalness of self discovery.
This, and much more, awaits you on Wednesday 19 with Trifles. The free event, which requires reservations, will start at 18.30. There will be a way not only to drink and listen to the debate, but also to visit the spaces of Rome Sorting and access the Bookshop.
We are waiting for you in Via Giuseppe Arimondi, 3!
