The book

Cover of The Argonauts by Maggie Nelson

The Argonauts

Maggie Nelson · 2015 · memoir

Maggie Nelson's 2015 book is part memoir and part theory, about falling for the artist Harry Dodge, who is gender-fluid, and building a family. It won the National Book Critics Circle Award for criticism. Beach reading for the sort of teenager who reads footnotes for fun.
