The Argonauts

An intimate blend of memoir, theory, and love story that redefines family, gender, and identity.

Nelson recounts her relationship with the gender-fluid artist Harry Dodge, her experience of pregnancy, and her intellectual engagement with queer theory and feminist philosophy.

The book defies categorization, moving seamlessly between personal narrative and academic insight. It’s a modern classic of confessional writing that reimagines what it means to live a life without binary boundaries.
