Rose Dommu on Her Debut Novel ‘Best Woman,’ the Trans ’90s Rom-Com Update We Deserve
['Emma Specter']
Vogue
(After all, who says a leading lady can’t sow a little pre-nuptial tumult in the estimable company of hot people of all genders?)
Where, when, and how did the idea for Best Woman first come to you?
I also love classic ’90s rom-coms like My Best Friend’s Wedding, and I really wanted to pay tribute to those, but through a more contemporary lens and with a trans protagonist.
Did you always know you wanted said protagonist, Julia, to incite bisexual chaos?
That’s why I think rom-coms have become kind of stale and fallen out of favor.
