Description
Claire Wick is odd, especially for a farm girl in 1892. She’s never really felt like a girl —or a boy for that matter. Claire’s always been a ‘queer young lady,’ but at thirteen years old she’s expected to think about things like marriage or going away to work as a maid. Happiness seems out of her reach…
In Claire Wick’s Moment of Truth, a 19th century teen tries to escape her troubles on her brother’s bicycle, and somehow pedals her way into the modern day. There, she encounters a world where anyone can live their truth, and with the help of some transgender friends, Claire discovers the strength to take her truth back home.
