Imogen Binnie

Imogen Binnie is an American author and punk musician best known for her groundbreaking novel "Nevada," originally self-published in 2013 and reissued by Farrar, Straus and Giroux in 2022. The novel follows Maria Griffiths, a trans woman navigating life in New York City, and has become a touchstone of transgender literature, widely credited with shaping a generation of trans writers and readers. Binnie's sharp, sardonic prose and unflinching exploration of identity, alienation, and self-discovery have earned her a devoted following. She is also known for her zine work and contributions to underground and queer literary communities.
