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.

Selin Berghan - Lubunya: Transseksüel Kimlik ve Beden

Original title: "Lubunya: Transseksüel Kimlik ve Beden" (Lubunya: Transgender Identity and Body) by Selin Berghan.

Almost everywhere in the world today, transsexuals face the hostilities that their different sexuality creates in society; they are excluded because they are seen as threatening patriarchy, and in the best case they are ignored.

This book aims to determine the situation of transsexuals in Turkey by listening to them from their own mouths and to give visibility instead of covering up the problems. As much as it's a means for transsexuals to express themselves, it also sheds light on what our society thinks about gender and sexuality in general: Where does the anger and disgust with transsexuals come from?
