A groundbreaking work of LGBT literature takes an honest look at
the life, love, and struggles of transgender teens.
Author and
photographer Susan Kuklin met and interviewed six transgender or
gender-neutral young adults and used her considerable skills to
represent them thoughtfully and respectfully before, during, and
after their personal acknowledgment of gender preference. Portraits,
family photographs, and candid images grace the pages, augmenting the
emotional and physical journey each youth has taken. Each honest
discussion and disclosure, whether joyful or heartbreaking, is
completely different from the other because of family dynamics,
living situations, gender, and the transition these teens make in
recognition of their true selves.
