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.

Lisa Anusch - Der Traum von Freiheit

Original title: "Der Traum von Freiheit: Transsexualität – Transidentität. Hilfe für Menschen zwischen den Geschlechtern." (The dream of freedom: Transsexuality – Transidentity. Help for people between the sexes) by Lisa Anusch, Birgit Hillar, and Hans Georg van Herste.

"In the first part of this book, Lisa Anusch asks Elke, 42, and Johanna, 14, to elaborate on their way out of the transidentity crisis. It immediately becomes clear that family support and the use of psychological help can make a path of suffering much easier.

In the second part, psychologist Birgit Hillar and pain therapist and psychologist Hans Georg van Herste have their say. They show what possibilities those affected have to lead a »normal« life in public. Johanna's mother comments: "If I had held this book in my hands earlier, I would have saved myself many detours. Many things would have been easier for me and my daughter Johanna."
