Rainbow Rainbow is Lydia Conklin’s debut short story collection. Many of the stories describe the experiences of queer, trans, nonbinary, and other gender-nonconforming characters. The stories are funny and heartbreaking, and Conklin’s ability to go deep into the psyche of their characters make them extremely relatable, no matter how different the characters’ actual experience may be from your own.
