What a great, quick story of self-discovery. This is a powerful essay about claiming your identity (whatever that may be) and living your truth. It was inspiring to hear about the process of healing oneself when our society currently does everything to break you down. Will be thinking about this one for a while!

fresh authentic and relatable self-reflection about identity. although i’m an avid fan of chella and have been following them for more than a year it was nice to read more and i can learn from their story, reaction, and reflection.

I'd seen the Pocket Change Collective books before but never really picked one up until now. Continuum was as it says on the tin, very short but also just an awesome introduction or small look into Chella's life. I loved hearing about his experiences and all of the intersections of his identity. I'm eager to look more into his art and other work!

Also, they were right, can confirm it does fit into a pocket (at least a jacket pocket).

Nice, short biography from Chella Man. Definitely interesting to hear about his life and struggles, most of which he's seemingly used to learn positive lessons and understand himself better. Great view into how identity is a continuum and ever-changing, and how being Chinese, Jewish, trans, genderqueer, and deaf later in life has made it hard for Chella to find where he fits in.

It's my first book by Pocket Change Collective and I understand these are meant to be short, but it felt a bit like it could've been an article instead.
