520    It's 1993 and Paul Polydoris tends bar at the only gay 
       club in a university town thrumming with politics and 
       partying. He studies queer theory, has a dyke best friend,
       makes zines, and is a flâneur with a rich dating life. But
       Paul's also got a secret: he's a shapeshifter. Oscillating
       wildly from Riot Grrrl to leather cub, Women's Studies 
       major to trade, Paul transforms his body at will in a 
       series of adventures that take him from Iowa City to 
       Boystown to Provincetown and finally to San Francisco--a 
       journey through the deep queer archives of struggle and 
       pleasure. Andrea Lawlor's debut novel offers a speculative
       history of early '90s identity politics during the heyday 
       of ACT UP and Queer Nation. Paul Takes the Form of a 
       Mortal Girl is a riotous, razor-sharp bildungsroman whose 
       hero/ine wends his way through a world gutted by loss, 
       pulsing with music, and opening into an array of intimacy 
       and connections.
