\u201cI\u2019m writing an encyclopedia about a television show for a friend of mine who died,” says the narrator of Little Blue Encyclopedia (for Vivian)<\/i><\/p>\n

Hazel Jane Plante’s debut novel does just that, in layered, delightful, and dense prose. Out this October, the novel will launch in Vancouver, Burnaby, Victoria, Montreal, Toronto, and more. Hazel will also appear in September at Canzine Vancouver.<\/p>\n

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++<\/p>\n

The playful and poignant novel Little Blue Encyclopedia (for Vivian)<\/i> sifts through a queer trans woman’s unrequited love for her straight trans friend who died. A queer love letter steeped in desire, grief, and delight, the story is interspersed with encyclopedia entries about a fictional TV show set on an isolated island. The experimental form functions at once as a manual for how pop culture can help soothe and mend us and as an exploration of oft-overlooked sources of pleasure, including karaoke, birding, and butt toys. Ultimately, Little Blue Encyclopedia (for Vivian) reveals with glorious detail and emotional nuance the woman the narrator loved, why she loved her, and the depths of what she has lost.<\/p>\n

Trish Salah, author of Wanting in Arabic<\/i> et Lyric Sexology Vol. 1<\/i>, calls the book “gorgeously whimsical, inspired, odd and anguished. Reminiscent of early Jeanette Winterson, but also utterly innovative, this is a love letter to heart break and to art as its only, imperfect salve.”<\/p>\n
