Trans and Disabled: An Anthology of Identities and Experiences by Alex Iantaffi

4.0

Trans & Disabled brings together a collection of insightful, raw and moving stories, essays, plays and poems sharing the intersection of trans and disabled identifies. A must-read for anyone who identifies as trans and/or disabled, or those wanting to expand their understanding.

As with any anthology, some pieces resonated with me more than others. I’m cis and disabled with low support needs, and there was much I could relate to as well as new-to-me knowledge and perspectives. I devoured it over the course of a weekend but will definitely return to some of my favourite pieces to savour them in more detail.

While there is diversity amongst the contributors, there’s unfortunately a disappointing lack of pieces by trans women.

Thank you to NetGalley and Jessica Kingsley Publishers for the eARC.
