Yes

Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Complicated
This is basically To Kill a Mockingbird but begging oblivious readers capable of human empathy to give a shit about trans people. I DO NOT recommend this to trans readers or anyone who already has trans people in their life they love and respect because this is intentionally deeply upsetting. A trans woman and activist asked Picoult to write this with her to make an appeal to society to do something about the violence and persecution.
