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.
Full title: "Being Different: the Autobiography of Jane Fry" by Robert Bogdan.
By working together with a pre-operative transsexual, Robert Bogdan has produced a book that bears out his initial claim for the value of autobiography as a means of understanding social reality.
This is not a book on transsexualism - indeed, on this matter it is sometimes irritatingly vague - but on the management of sex roles, on the inability of the medical profession to deal with non-conformists and on the enormous hazards that face anyone who fails to conform with society"s expectations of them.
