Original title: "Nieuwe namen: Levensverhalen van transgender ouderen" (New names: Life stories of transgender elderly people)
'Arthur Japin: 'Once again Eveline van de Putte knows how to tell the stories of an exceptional group of people from the inside out. Penetrating and essential, personal stories about life and survival!' Boris Dittrich: 'Poignant stories, which show how much it is necessary to focus the spotlight on older transgender people. A beautiful book that reverberates for a long time to come.'
Transgender people nowadays are increasingly getting the attention they deserve. However, one group remains underexposed: transgender elderly people, a fascinating group of pioneers who sought answers to their questions in a time without examples. Today's transgender elderly are the first to have the opportunity to undergo gender reassignment surgery: all the more reason to let these seniors speak in books and films.
