Only three people are privy to the secret—the baby’s parents, Jacinta and Treadway, and a trusted neighbor and midwife, Thomasina. Though Treadway makes the difficult decision to raise the child as a boy named Wayne, the women continue to quietly nurture the boy’s female side. And as Wayne grows into adulthood within the hyper-masculine hunting society of his father, his shadow-self, a girl he thinks of as “Annabel,” is never entirely extinguished.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eKathleen Winter has crafted a literary gem about the urge to unveil mysterious truth in a culture that shuns contradiction, and the body’s insistence on coming home. A daringly unusual debut full of unforgettable beauty,\u003ci\u003e Annabel\u003c\/i\u003e introduces a remarkable new voice to American readers.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Kathleen Winter","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42955850023030,"sku":"9780802170828","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0671\/1374\/6550\/files\/CoreSourceHub_a45b138c-9eee-490e-89a4-df9e8742bbb8.jpg?v=1767710793","url":"https:\/\/ingramacademic.com\/products\/annabel-9780802170828","provider":"Ingram Academic \u0026 Professional","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
