Beschreibung
A profound and deeply moving young adult novel about trans identity, queer history and found family. Calla Quick feels she has no future after her parents disown her, leaving her unable to afford the all-women’s college she planned to attend with her girlfriend, Ramona. Although Calla says her parents rejected her because they discovered she is gay, the truth is that Calla has been questioning whether she is a girl at all. One night, after Calla and Ramona stumble upon a mysterious farmhouse in the woods, they meet five teenagers who claim to have lived there for decades. The land, called Amaranth, is a refuge for queer young people throughout history, free from hatred, violence and time itself. Here, Calla can be Cal, use they/them pronouns and feel accepted. But when the clock strikes twelve, the housemates must find a way to stop time again or return to their harsh realities, while Cal begins to question what queer people lose when their history disappears with time.
