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.

Dianna Boileau - Behold I am a Woman Now

Full title: "Behold I am a Woman Now" by Dianna Boileau.

I found this book on a fantastic website of transascity.org. It is available for reading there. When reading I cried, cried, and cried. I thought that my own transition was a challenge but it was nothing compared to what Dianna Boileau had to go through in the 60s and 70s.

In the preface, we can read: "Now Dianna tells her story. The story of a boy growing up to discover he was a girl in every way but in physical equipment. The story of a boy forced by society to live a secret life of shame and degradation in the night world of the sexual outcast. A story that is bizarre, startling, shocking - yet one that is deeply human and courageous, a moving plea for tolerance and understanding of individual sexual preferences, no matter how unusual they may be".
