I Know Very Well How I Got My Name: A Novella

The night he loses his virginity, he becomes Dean. Amy Wagner names himâ€”and she would know best. Amy knows all kinds of things that Dean doesnâ€™t understandâ€”things about sex, music, and the darker side of life. All Dean knows is his safe suburban home with his parents, books, and imaginary games. Until now, heâ€™s been able to hide his true identity, even from himself. To the rest of the world, he is a teenage girlâ€”an awkward, boyish teenage girl, but a girl nonetheless. Meeting Amy changes everything. Soon that protected world around him begins to fall apart, and he is left with no other option but to face himself and the truth. I Know Very Well How I Got My Name chronicles Deanâ€™s clumsy progression through the American public school system. It is the 90â€™s and early 2000â€™s, in suburban Syracuse, New Yorkâ€”a world in which LGBTQ bullying is not yet a hot topic in schools, and there is little tolerance for outsiders of any kind. A prequel to the award-winning novel Refuse, Elliott DeLineâ€™s second book is about the prevailing myths surrounding bullying and abuse, and the hardships of being young and transgender without a community, support, or a roadmap.
