Description
Everyone assumes that Zee is a lesbian. Her classmates, her gym buddies, even her so-called best friend. Even Zee is starting to wonder. Could they be onto something?
Everyone assumes that Art is gay. They take one look at his nice clothes and his pretty face and think: well, obviously.

But there's more to Zee and Art than anyone realizes. What develops is a powerful connection between two people who are beautiful in all the ways they've been told are strange. As they explore their own complex relationships to gender, sexuality, and identity, they fall for the complexities they find in each other. With his trademark frankness, B. T. Gottfred delves inside both characters' heads in this story about love and living authentically.

reviews
      • premium: True
      • source: AudioFile Magazine
      • content: In alternating points of view, Zee and Art brandish big personalities in a novel that shatters barriers between friendship and romance, gender presentation and sexual orientation. Narrator Alex McKenna's raspy, moody performance communicates that Zee is more than an average tomboy. Narrator Maxwell Glick portrays Art with a predilection for drama that will annoy some listeners, while charming others. The story is followed by an author's note in which Zee and Art join author B.T. Gottfred for acknowledgements and an exploration of Gottfred's belief in the concept that "The Future Is Female." Finally, in character, Zee and Art describe their "Zert Scale," a Kinsey Scale-inspired exploration of human attraction that they craft in the story. S.P. © AudioFile 2018, Portland, Maine
