"Exciting from the first to the last page! I say, this book is already a classic."
— Ulli Lust, author of Today is the Last Day of the Rest of Your Life
It's 1999, and Jet has just been dumped in a boarding house full of out-ofcontrol students amidst weird drama, sinister staff, and the looming Y2K apocalypse. Drifting away from everything that teenage girls seem to be interested in, Jet slowly realizes that they may be more of a boy than the girl everyone says they should be. But who can they turn to when nobody else seems to be having the same problems?
Trans creator Joris Bas Backer presents an enlightening, hilarious, and emotional look at what it was like to be both transgender and a teenager before the internet age.
Joris Bas Backer grew up in The Hague, Bucharest, New York and in an uninviting Dutch city called Oegstgeest. His work deals with the topics of longing, identity, gender dysphoria and gender roles. Joris now lives in Berlin and works independently as an artist, comic artist and illustrator.

Scrappy young Jimmy is a pro wrestler in the making, and he’s up for taking on anyone and anything. From his own family, his schoolwork, wild animals and pirates, he’s challenging the world one small fight at a time, but can his hopes and dreams take him all the way to stellar success? Or will his fists finally get him into too much trouble?
Debut creator Lara Kaminoff's graphic novel about the human spirit is funny and touching, with anti-hero Jimmy wrestling his way into your heart and changing your outlook on the fighting spirit within all of us.
Lara Kaminoff is a cartoonist and book-slinger living in Seattle with her beloved and their cat, Creeper. She’s inspired by an endless parade of podcasts, the magical world of fungi, brilliant friends, climbable trees, and danceable floors. Right now she’s probably talking too fast, thinking too hard or trying to fix something that ain’t broke.

INTRODUCING TWENTY SEVEN
Twenty Seven is a bold, new literary list to celebrate experimental writing in fiction and non fiction. It will launch in 2021 to champion breakthrough voices who have something important to say or a brilliant story to tell. This new list will appeal to a contemporary readership who want to read surprising, provocative and inspiring books. Nobrow has an established visual aesthetic in illustrated books and we’re excited to bring this to the form of the novel by merging with authors who love to experiment with the form of the content.
Twenty Seven’s aim is to become home to the next great writing heroes who are not afraid to stand out from the crowd, and find their feet with an independent publisher not afraid to take a risk. Our small and curated list will grab readers and champion dynamic fiction and non-fiction writing.

Faithful Penelope waits for her husband’s return as she weaves a shroud that foretells her doom, Scylla once a beautiful nymph turned monster prowls the seas hungry for flesh, while the witch Circe falls for a man who will leave her.
Valentine Carter’s fierce verse novel debut gives voice to the mostly forgotten and maligned female characters of Homer’s epic The Odyssey. It is a celebratory ode to those who survive within and outside of gender norms and questions how those without a voice find freedom within the world of men.
Valentine Carter grew up in a small village, escaped to the capital and now lives by the sea. They recently completed an MA in creative writing at Birkbeck, University of London, where they are now studying for a PhD. Valentine has short fiction published by The Fiction Pool, Bandit Fiction, In Yer Ear and The Mechanics’ Institute Review : Issue 15 and Issue 16, and poetry published by Perverse and Visual Verse.
