Written by autistic trans people from around the world, this vital and intimate collection of personal essays reveals the struggles and joys of living at the intersection of neurodivergence and gender diversity.
Weaving memories, poems and first-person narratives together, these stories showcase experiences of coming out, college and university life, accessing healthcare, physical transition, friendships and relationships, sexuality, pregnancy, parenting, and late life self-discovery, to reveal a rich and varied tapestry of life lived on the spectrums.
With humour and personal insight, this anthology is essential reading for autistic trans people, and the professionals supporting them, as well as anyone interested in the nuances of autism and gender identity.
Leo Tolstoy, Avid Reader –
This collection of pieces written by the people who lived the experiences is on of the most informative and comprehensive books I’ve read on these topics. The pieces have a central merging of being both trans and autistic. They are original and the collection as a whole resonates with the sincere voices of a diverse group of people in a manner that is refreshing and relevant in society.Thank you to netgalley and the publisher for providing a copy of this book to read and review. The opinions expressed here are my own.
