I have ✨news✨

In THE PALACE OF EROS, I have written into genderqueerness, and the longing to live free and whole outside the box of patriarchy, like never before. I've taken risks. I'm stunned and amazed and thrilled this book has found U.S. and UK homes. 😮😭🥳

To fight for and love a country that despises you… that finds joy and elation in your suffering is truly a different kind of pain. It is mourning in America. A new world order begins. 🙏🏾

@jenstjude 🙌🏼🏹🏳️‍⚧️

[Caro De Robertis @caroderobertis]

I was thrilled to talk with the one & only @jenstjude about transforming ancient myths, the contributions trans & queer folks make to masculinity, writing the erotic, what it means to be "unruly and immense," and so much more.

[Caro De Robertis @caroderobertis]

@LissaJoStewart Thank you, this means the absolute world to me.

HAPPY BUTCH APPRECIATION DAY ✨🙌🏼 butches are amazing, always.

In celebration, here’s an excerpt of my ⁦⁦@ElectricLit⁩ shout out to butches, and a glimpse of ⁦me with Parnaz Foroutan at @skylightbooks⁩ on Friday night just bursting with butch joy

[Caro De Robertis @caroderobertis]

The brilliant @juliandlopera & I chopped it up about trans histories, phallic energy, queer sex as a power source, & more.

"Caro’s prose is magnificent, it incorporates language for a gender expansive body into a myth that is 2000 years old and makes it look easy." 😯🙏🏼🏳️‍⚧️
