The book explores transsexuals and their notions of masculinity and femininity as they change gender identities. Her interviews shed light on the transformation from one sex/gender to another. Joining Jana will be Nick Krieger, author of Nina Here Nor There, a gender-bending exploration of the land between man and woman, a coming-of-age story, a family dramedy, and a tale of first love.
Publishers Weekly writes, “A beautifully rendered and personal account that feels like a fresh addition to trans literature."
