Selected Works
In 2002, Rehma co-created the anthology Colonize This! Young Women of Color on Today’s Feminism with Daisy Hernández, as a response to the hate crimes against people of color she and her co-creator witnessed in NYC post 9/11.[5]
Rehman's novel Roses in the Mouth, is loosely based on her own experience growing up in Corona, Queens in the 1980s and learning more about her own queer identity.[3][4] Inspired by the strength of the friendships with other girls she had growng up, she set out writing Roses in the Mouth to celebrate those friendships.[5] Rehman says grief is an important theme in the novel.[5] The New Yorker named it one of the best books of 2022.[6] It was nominated for a Lambda Literary Award in the category Bisexual Fiction.[1]
