<b>Finalist, Lambda Literary Award</b><br /><br /><i>In the beginning, there is no he. There is no she.</i><br /><br /><i>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.</i><br /><br /><i>This is why we are so lonely.</i><br /><br /><br /><i>She of the Mountains</i> is a beautifully rendered illustrated novel by Vivek Shraya, the author of the Lambda Literary Award finalist <i>God Loves Hair</i>. 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.<br /><br />Illustrations are by Raymond Biesinger, whose work has appeared in such publications as <i>The New Yorker</i> and the <i>New York Times.</i><br /><br /><b>
