As per MarginalRevolution's Tyler Cowen - "The main tale is the author’s pioneering transgender experiences, but it’s far broader than that, also being an excellent travel book, romance, family story, and tale of ineradicable obsession. Everything is pitch perfect, and you can finish it in a sitting."

For the Read Harder Challenge, #17: Read a memoir written by someone who is trans or nonbinary. A little hard to rate this. It's one of the earliest memoirs about transsexuality, I believe, written in the 1970s, so there's value in that. But the author comes across as classist and sexist, even for the times.
