A random collection of over 1910 books and audiobooks authored by or about my transgender, intersex sisters, and gender-nonconforming persons all over the world. I read some of them, and I was inspired by some of them. I met some of the authors and heroines, some of them are my best friends, and I had the pleasure and honor of interviewing some of them. If you know of any transgender biography that I have not covered yet, please let me know.

Original title: "Le Corps étranger ou l'Aventure transsexuelle" (The Foreign Body or the Transsexual Adventure) by Myriam Dechevrens.
In 1935, in Geneva, a boy, Jean, was born into a family of workers. Very early in his life, he realizes that he is not like the others. Why isn't he a girl, like his younger sister?
He will undertake a quest for his identity that will take him thirty years. Then he will get his operation and his change of marital status.
In the book, we will find, in addition to many digressions on the phenomenon of transsexualism, a bibliography on the subject, legal references, as well as a commentary on works written by other people, men, and women, on the subject.
