Transgender Experience by David Coad

This collection by trans and non-trans academics and artists from the United States, the UK, and continental Europe, examines how transgenderism can be conceptualized in a literary, biographical, and autobiographical framework, with emphasis on place, ethnicity and visibility. The volume covers the 1950s to the present day and examines autobiographical accounts and films featuring gender transition. Chapters focus on various stages of transitioning. Interviews with trans people are also provided.

"This lively addition to trans studies crosses diverse geographical and gender boundaries, forging important connections between personal narratives and theoretical claims" -Patricia Elliot, Wilfrid Laurier University, Canada
