Valid : dystopian autofiction  Cover Image Book Book

Valid : dystopian autofiction / Chris Bergeron ; translated by Natalia Hero.

Bergeron, Chris, (author.). Hero, Natalia, (translator.).

Summary:

Set in a disturbingly transfigured Montreal in the year 2050, Valid is a monologue delivered over the span of eight hours by Christelle, a seventy-year-old trans woman forced to live as a man in order to survive. Speaking to her captor, an ever-more powerful AI, she turns the tables and mounts her own revolution by showing her truest self. Part autofiction, part dystopic speculation on an all-too-possible future characterized by corporate power, ecological collapse, and political havoc, Valid is an ambitious work that is as much philosophical as it is confessional.
