About
Our Queer Book Group meets monthly to discuss contemporary fiction and nonfiction titles that relate to queer identity and more. Queer Book Group with Alex Discusses Jaw Filler by Maz Murray and Charlie Markbreiter Led by former Greenlight bookseller Alex, our Queer Book Group meets monthly to discuss contemporary fiction and nonfiction titles that relate to queer experience, identity, and community. For November, the group discusses the prize-winning novel Jaw Filler, co-authored by Maz Murray and Charlie Markbreiter. When Sean Hastings, (the first) transgender private detective, is asked to investigate the disappearance of Character, he enters the First Trans Commune in Sim World, a virtual reality community imagineered by transfluencer Kevin and bankrolled by VSI, a mysterious tech company. A pulpy neo-noir romp through the anxiously assimilated transmasculine id, Jaw Filler asks: who is VSI, and what do they really want? Can you be your own dad? And if Character’s mind is trapped in Sim World, then where is his body?
