Joana Nolais's autobiography was written together with journalist Catherine Rihoit, as Joana was not a writer and needed support to organize her ideas.
Joana wrote her story at the age of sixty-four
of age, four years after gender reassignment surgery. For her, her autobiography had the purpose of opening a space of existence and social recognition. For us,
it is a record that invites dialogue and a look at transsexuality.
Right from the start, Joana refers to two possible paths for transsexuals, either to hide or show off like circus animals. There are not a variety of options to choose from,
when you are transsexual, society does not recognize transgender people and wants nothing to do with transsexuality.
