"In the beginning, there is no he. There is no she."
"Two cells make up one cell. This is the mathematics behind
creation. One plus one makes one. Life begets life. We are the
period to a sentence, the effect to a cause, always belonging to
someone. We are never our own."
"This is why we are so lonely."
"She of the Mountains" is a beautifully rendered illustrated
novel by Vivek Shraya, the author of the Lambda Literary Award
finalist "God Loves Hair." Shraya weaves a passionate, contemporary
love story between a man and his body, with a re-imagining of Hindu
mythology. Both narratives explore the complexities of embodiment
and the damaging effects that policing gender and sexuality can
have on the human heart.
Illustrations are by Raymond Biesinger, whose work has appeared in
such publications as "The New Yorker" and the "New York
Times."
Vivek Shraya is a multimedia artist, working in the mediums of
music, performance, literature, and film. His most recent film,
"What I LOVE about Being QUEER," has been expanded to include an
online project and book with contributions from around the world.
He is also author of "God Loves Hair."
