Andrew Joseph White never fails to write gripping, emotional, and real stories about trans youth and survival that will tug on your heart and make you gasp. Compound Fracture turns to the destructive state of American politics, corrupt police, and late-stage capitalism through the story of one boy, his dog, and the ghost of his great-grandfather (with a railroad spike in his throat). Gripping, loving, and utterly jarring, this is a must-read story of hope, despite the gore and the challenges that come with small-town culture.
