Original title: "Dziennik" (The Diary) by Klaudia Newerna. This is the second book by Klaudia Newerna. Her first book "Onna: Sceny z życia" (S(he): Life Snapshots) was published in 2010.
The record of events in the author's life covers the period from December 2000 to mid-2005, including a reference to some of her activities after those years. In the book, the author describes her own experiences from the period in which she undertook the process of gender transition, which at the beginning is usually associated with the need to confront doctors and the legal system.
The described events concern the period that should be treated as "pre-Internet times", the experiences of contemporary transgender women are currently shaped differently due to the fact that the Internet is generally available. Although there are relatively few transsexual people, their fates can be very diverse – this is mainly influenced by: financial resources, the issue of acting as a woman or a man (mtf, ftm), the intellectual potential of family and friends, and finally a gracious or unkind nature that bestows a specific beauty.
In the Diary you will come across something that is usually neglected when creating this type of publication namely: specific dates and calculation of the costs of the transition.
