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.

Ela Mergels - Walking in Between

Original title: "Walking in Between" by Ela Mergels.

Ela Mergels published her book "walking in between" in 1998 with photos of German transsexuals. In it, she not only shows the usual portrait photos, but also tries to capture the living environment: the dreary high-rise housing estate, the wall with the souvenir photos, the bathroom with the cosmetics and the dumbbells next to the bed.

The result is an authentic snapshot that gives an insight into the lives and impressions of the lives of these trans women and trans men. And that's exactly where the difference to many other photographers who turn to the topic of transgender people lies: nothing glamorous, no travesty art, but also no tragedies, but - lived normality.
