Variations is the debut short story collection from one of
Britain's most compelling voices, Juliet Jacques. Using fiction
inspired by found material and real-life events, Variations
explores the history of transgender Britain with lyrical, acerbic
wit. Variations travels from Oscar Wilde's London to austerity-era
Belfast via inter-war Cardiff, a drag bar in Liverpool just after
the decriminalisation of homosexuality, Manchester's protests
against Clause 28, and Brighton in the 2000s. Through diary entries
of an illicit love affair, an oral history of a contemporary
political collective; a 1920s academic paper to a 1990s film
script; a 1950s memoir to a series of 2014 blog posts, Jacques
rewrites and reinvigorates a history so often relegated to stale
police records and sensationalist news headlines. Innovative and
fresh, Variations is a bold and beautiful book of stories unheard;
until now.
