Reviews

PJ DiPietro’s work is daring, yet careful, deeply innovative, and highly ambitious. Their book is a tour de force that centers the non-translatable, nonbinary, complex state of being that Latin American and US Latinx gender fluid persons inhabit and illuminate. DiPietro is quite simply one of the most exciting, daring, and uniquely positioned philosophers and interdisciplinary hemispheric thinkers of their generation. This is inspiring, necessary, and visionary philosophy. -- Laura E. Pérez, University of California, Berkeley, author of Eros Ideologies: Writings on Art, Spirituality, and the Decolonial A paradigm-shifting and urgent contribution. Sideways Selves is a rare gem among scholarly texts: a study that shifts the ground of all of the fields in which it is embedded. This book asks us to reorient the whole apparatus of critical theory in and through trans studies; it stands to position DiPietro as a leader in feminisms in the hemisphere. -- Carlos Ulises Decena, Rutgers University, author of Circuits of the Sacred: A Faggotology in the Black Latinx Caribbean
