A fascinating work of art filled with incredible insights into a trans person’s experience, without depicting the transition period (which the author says is a cisnormative concept of how trans people experience it, because it’s not about a switch from one gender to another (because there are more than two; gender is a spectrum)— trans is an identity in itself, full of its own unique experiences and feelings, depicted so honestly in this novel). 
It’s funny and gloomy and insightful and makes you think. Read the new version with the afterword.
