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.

Mirella Izzo - Perpetue Rifrazioni

Original title: "Perpetue Rifrazioni: Poesie del corpo e dell'anima" (Perpetual Refractions: Poems of the body and the soul) by Mirella Izzo.

The poems of Mirella Izzo, founder of Crisalide AzioneTrans ONLUS, on the themes dear to her and directly concerning her biography as a transgender, lesbian, and - later - disabled woman. She elaborates on the themes - some of which - never dealt with in the form of poetry: gender transition from male to female, love and trans/lesbian sex, physical handicap, and the cybernetic body.

For those who know the author for her public commitment, the book is a way to find her most personal and private emotions. For those who don't know her, this is a way to get closer, through her poems, to the problems of transgender (or transsexual) people, to lesbian love - especially translesbian - but also concerning the disabled and the cybernetic body.
