cupitonians 's review for:
Trans: A Memoir
by Juliet Jacques
emotional
hopeful
informative
inspiring
medium-paced
An eye opening memoir on the social and physical aspects of transition, Janet writes about the realities of living through a transition while trying to navigate the everyday struggles re: jobs, money, making ends meet, homophobes, existential crises etc. She writes about her experience writing for a mainstream media that was often transphobic, and I really enjoyed her insights into the alarming influence of media, influential TERFs (and conservatives) in shaping the dangerous anti trans world we now live in. I especially enjoyed the time capsule of British life and culture she creates while talking about her social life, her musical tastes/loves, and movie influences.
