Description

Trans tells the story of Juliet Jacques' life to the present moment, from her early days as a writer navigating a world dominated by London cliques, to her journey of self-discovery and transition.

In this unflinching memoir, Jacques chronicles her experiences with sex reassignment surgery, exploring the rapidly changing world of gender politics and culture. With humour, self-deprecation and honesty, she interweaves personal and political narratives, shedding light on debates that promise to redefine our understanding of what it means to be alive.

Featuring an epilogue in conversation with Sheila Heti, Trans is a powerful exploration of identity, writing and the complexities of human experience.
