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: "Processo a Rolandina: La storia vera di una transgender condannata al rogo nella Venezia del XIV secolo" (Trial of Rolandina: The true story of a transgender woman burned at the stake in fourteenth-century Venice)
Venice, 1353. For years Rolandina Ronchaia, a young woman, has been walking around Rialto with her baskets of eggs to sell. But being a street vendor is not enough to survive, much less to realize the dream of opening a shop of her own. That's why she's also a prostitute.
Despite this, being beautiful, kind, and always available to help neighbors, she is loved and respected. Then one day a complaint for sodomy arrives and the suspicion arises that the young woman is not really a woman.
