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: "Essere o apparire. Nascondersi è un po' morire" (To be or to appear. Hiding is a bit dying) by Paola Catanzaro.
"When duality dwells in us, there is always a predominant part. In me surely the strongest part was the female one, despite my body being male. Those who have divided the human race into two genders have not taken into account that in nature there is always the exception.
So how to overcome preconceptions, phobia, and differences? I wrote this book to tell the true story of a "woman by choice". My life, my pains, my battles. The wounds inflicted for no reason, healed and made me stronger. The tears dried up new horizons for me. Hiding is useless, hiding is like dying."
