The Transgender Issue: An Argument for Justice by Shon Faye
challenging
informative
slow-paced
3.0
I did enjoy this book, despite only giving it 3/5 stars. I found it informative & enriching. But Faye’s analysis of gender, femininity/masculinity and patriarchy only went halfway. I know this isn’t strictly a history book, but our understanding of these topics is imbedded in a history of race (which just wasn’t touched upon), and class (which wasn’t touched upon enough). But being the history buff I am, perhaps this is more a ‘me’ problem.
