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.

Jorge L. Peralta & Others - Memorias, identidades...

Original title: "Memorias, identidades y experiencias trans: (In)visibilidades entre Argentina y España" (Memories, identities and trans experiences: (In)visibilities between Argentina and Spain) by Jorge Luis Peralta and Rafael M. Mérida Jiménez.

"Visible but, at the same time, invisible: this paradoxical condition has marked and continues to mark the existence of trans people. Consequently, the reconstruction of possible genealogies comes up against a certain void in terms of representations, especially if they are first-person accounts, not mediated by an "other" alien to the social and sexual reality of transvestites, transsexuals and transgenders.

This book aims to offer an interdisciplinary look at the trans universe in Argentina and Spain from the 1960s to the beginning of this millennium. The aim is to contribute to the rescue and recovery of voices and experiences, both through textual and sociological analysis or historiographical reconstruction, as well as testimonies that illuminate, in the first person, the various itineraries of transvestism, transsexuality, and transgenderism.

The testimonies interrelate voices such as those of Camila Sosa Villada, Kim Pérez, Naty Menstrual, Lohana Berkins, Eduardo Mendicutti, and Pietro Salemme. The articles belong to Argentine and Spanish researchers of different generations: María Soledad Cutuli, Jaime de la Calle, Óscar Guasch, Santiago Joaquín Insausti, Jordi Mas, Alejandro Melero, Adrián Melo, Rafael M. Mérida, Alejandro Modarelli, José Antonio Nieto, Cristina Ornielli, Jorge Luis Peralta, Raquel (Lucas) Platero Méndez and Majo Torres."
