| Summary | "Identity" by Zoë Blade is a short story written in the early 21st century. The narrative explores the complex themes of gender identity and the challenges of adolescence through the eyes of the main character, Faye. Faye struggles with her self-image and the implications of a medical condition that affects her physical development, which leads to deeper questions about personal identity and societal expectations. The story follows Faye as she navigates the difficult terrain of teenage life, marked by bullying and feelings of inadequacy due to her flat-chested appearance and hormonal imbalance. The plot intensifies when her parents present her with a choice: to undergo surgery that may change her gender identity. This pivotal moment forces Faye to confront her feelings, including a budding affection for her best friend Rebecca. Ultimately, Faye decides to undergo the surgery, which results in a transformation into a boy named David. The story concludes with David grappling with the memories of Faye's experiences and the emotional fallout with Rebecca, who is left to process the loss of her best friend. Through its poignant exploration of identity and self-acceptance, the story raises relevant questions about who we are and how external transformations can alter our relationships and sense of self.
