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.
1992,
German,
Waltraud Schiffels,
Original title: "Frau werden. Von Walter zu Waltraud. Authentischer Bericht einer Transsexuellen" (To become a woman. From Walter to Waltraud. Authentic report of a transsexual)
"In the early 90s, Waldtraud Schiffels was one of the most famous trans women in Germany. In this book, she tells her life story.
This book is a harrowing document of gender conflict and the autobiographical processing of a sex change.
The author reflects on her childhood as a boy and on her life as a man, on early deviations, on family trauma, on alcoholism, on masochism and finally on her new life as a woman."
