A Domestication

by Camila Sosa Villada

Identity & Belonging Literary Fiction Family Drama Psychological Fiction Dark Comedy 2027

Summary

A celebrated trans actress has everything she once dreamed of: a successful career, a wealthy lawyer husband, a beautiful home, and an adopted son she fiercely loves. Yet beneath the polished surface of domestic happiness, she feels trapped between the freedom she has fought for and the expectations of conventional family life. When a visit to her rural hometown forces her to confront the prejudice and pain of her past, the life she has carefully constructed begins to fracture. Provocative, darkly funny, and emotionally raw, A Domestication explores desire, gender, class, and the uneasy price of belonging.
