Confessions of the Fox Overview

This book retells the real-life story of legendary British thief Jack Sheppard from the imagined perspective of his actually being transgender. As it tells the story of the growth of Sheppard’s reputation (as a thief) and identity (as a sexually fulfilled trans man), the novel presents his story as a parable of socialism, considering thematic elements that include human commodification and the longing for freedom.
