Tanaïs sat down for an interview with Harper’s Bazaar about their nonfiction debut, IN SENSORIUM. Reviewer Mathangi Subramanian writes: “In times like these, writers like Tanaïs matter more. Whether it’s through authoring critically acclaimed queer fiction with their novel BRIGHT LINES, successfully navigating the overwhelmingly straight, white perfume industry, or speaking truth to power on social media, Tanaïs carves out space for the rest of us. Their latest book, IN SENSORIUM, continues in this tradition, interweaving the science of perfumery, the voices of freedom-fighting Bangladeshi femmes, and the author’s own experiences as a queer Muslim writer into a narrative that fearlessly envisions liberation. It is, in short, the balm we have always needed.” Harper published the book on February 22, 2022.
