"Becoming Alex, a spiritual, sometimes transgender story begins in segregated Appalachia, sprints through Washington DC and the radical politics of the '60s, finds coherence in a career as a nomadic prep school headmaster, reverberates with the lessons of spiritual growth and amazing teachers--all the while with the defining subtext of a call to be transgender. Becoming Alex is both self-reflective and a commentary on personal growth and social justice.
Included in the book are lessons from grandmothers, Ram Das, 8th-grade basketball, evangelical school parents, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Native American cultures, Thich Nhat Hanh, and the found power of feminine self-expression. Richly illustrated with dynamic photographs, Becoming Alex is an engaging read and a visual delight."
