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.
Original title: "Alain, transsexuelle" (Alain, transsexual woman) by Inge Stephens.
Just five years old, Alain is faced with the total incomprehension of those who surround him. At about ten years old, he feels irresistibly attracted to women's clothing. In
adolescence, he discovers the breasts he needs to hide. He finds it difficult to differentiate between the two sexes.
Much later, in adulthood, after having experienced many difficulties in the various jobs which he successively occupies, he becomes aware of a troubling reality: he feels like a woman and moreover his anatomy partly designates it as such.
