About the Author
Reviews
"A story that is personal, yet undeniably universal at the same time." --Lambda Literary
"Bond's fabulosity is matched by a trenchant wit, and [V's] over-the-top stories are smartly edged with politics, sexual or otherwise." --New York Times
"A brief yet remarkably candid memoir of growing up different. . . Poignant and funny. . ." --Kirkus
"Thank you, Justin, for your courage in writing the truth of what you went through as a transgender child in this society. Thank you, also, for your sense of humor. This book is very important, and fun to read as well." --Yoko Ono, artist
"When I say Justin Vivian Bond is a true original, what I mean is, Justin doesn't resemble anyone else on the face of the planet. When I say Justin Bond is touched by genius, I mean exactly that." --Michael Cunningham, author of The Hours
"Tango is a raw nerve touching an electric soul, a beautiful book, written with honesty, pain, and joy from one of our great modern day shamans." --Sandra Bernhard, comedian
"Justin Vivian Bond is a lightning rod, a solid steel structure in heels that attracts burning chaos and disciplines it into orderly submission. Am I allowed to say that Justin is God?" --Rufus Wainwright, musician
"Tango should be in the hands of every child who can read, and of
every adult who cares about that child." --Michael Warner, author of The Trouble with Normal
"Reading Tango is like listening to your favorite eccentric cousin or auntie tell you hair-raising tales of innocence lost and found, friendships forged of adversity, and bullies bewildered by their own perversity. Justin spins a one-of-a-kind story that you won't be able to put down." --Kate Bornstein, author of Gender Outlaw
