Yesterday, Elliot Page dropped the first look at the cover (and title) of his forthcoming memoir, and trans folks who are not me were extremely hyped.

The memoir, which comes out June 6, 2023, will cover Page’s story in detail. “Trans people are facing increasing attacks, from physical violence to the banning of healthcare, and our humanity is regularly “debated” in the media,” Page wrote in the caption. “The act of writing, reading, and sharing the multitude of our experiences is an important step in standing up to those who wish to silence and harm us.”
No sooner did Page post the cover reveal than every single person on the face of the Earth rushed in to express their excitement. “This amazing,” wrote “In Treatment” actress Uzo Aduba. “Can’t wait to read, Elliott ❤️❤️” Trans influencer Schuyler Bailar chimed in with: “Oh my gosh this is so exciting!!!”
The Pride month release date has everyone impatiently awaiting June.
“Pageboy”. 6th June 2023.
