About

The Argonauts is a genre-bending memoir offering fresh, fierce, and timely thinking about desire, identity, and the limitations and possibilities of love and language. At its centre is the love story, based on the author's relationship with gender-fluid artist Harry Dodge, their journey to and through a pregnancy, and offers a first-hand account of the complexities and joys of (queer) family-making. Nelson's insistence on radical individual freedom and the value of caretaking becomes the rallying cry of this thoughtful, unabashed and uncompromising book.
