After "Explicit Novel", Josephine Yole Signorelli raises the stakes, deciding to tell her own story with brutal honesty. And it is the story of a teenager discovering her gender identity, in the "zero years". The acceptance of one's body against the background of school, bullying, family and social life, highs, online dating, sex and "cupio dissolve". And finally awareness and transformation, love - first of all towards oneself.
This comic tells a very powerful and important story, and that Yole's story can make the average reader reflect on a lot of false beliefs that they may have about the trans reality.
