<p><i>Sideshow Concessions</i> is the first book from queer performer and scholar Lucas Crawford. A collection populated by the circus-like bodies and experiences of a narrator navigating rural pasts and urban presents, Sideshow Concessions is the unofficial story of someone who is both a bearded lady and the fattest man in the world.</p><p><i>'Sideshow Confessions is an accessible glimpse at the absurd — a clever look at a trans narrative which explores its challenges without drowning in them... Crawford’s sense of humour is a breath of fresh air.'<b>—<i>Broken Pencil</i></b></i></p><p>“<i>Sideshow Concessions</i> is fresh, honest, heartbreaking, and funny, with turns of phrase equally intelligent and moving.”<b>—Karen Solie</b></p>
