Description
This Time for Me A Memoir by Alexandra Billings is an unflinching and deeply personal account of a life lived against the odds. Born in 1962, when being transgender was illegal, Alexandra forged her own path, defying expectations and forging a trail that would pave the way for future generations.
Spanning five decades, this memoir takes readers on a journey through the highs and lows of Alexandra's life, from the struggles of growing up queer in a hostile world to her determination to establish a career that would break boundaries. With unflinching honesty, she shares her story alongside the parallel evolution of queer identity since the Stonewall riots of 1969.
A celebration of endless possibilities, this memoir is a powerful exploration of one woman's fight for recognition and self-acceptance in a world that often sought to silence her. A testament to the enduring power of courage and determination, This Time for Me is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in the history of LGBTQ+ rights and the unbreakable spirit of its pioneers.
