For Today I Am a Boy
''For Today I Am a Boy'' is a novel written by Kim Fu, published in 2014 by Harper Collins. It follows the life of Peter Huang, a young transgender Chinese child, throughout Peter's childhood and adolescence in Fort Michel, Ontario, and adulthood and transformation in Montreal, Quebec. The novel is named after the Antony and the Johnsons' song of the same title.
==Plot==
Peter Huang is born in Fort Michel, Ontario, the only male child of Chinese immigrant parents. Playing with his three sisters, Adele, Helen, and Bonnie, he understands early on that he is a girl and aspires to embody the femininity his sisters are easily allowed. He struggles in his relationship with his father, a dictatorial, patriarchal man who is committed to eradicating his family's Chinese heritage and shaping Peter into an ideal Western man.
At age 18, Peter moves away from home and to Montreal, where he works in restaurants and leads a lonely life. He has affairs with two older women, the first an abusive mother of a casual friend, and the second a Christian evangelist trying to purge herself of lesbianism.
