Brought to you by Penguin.
Trans people in Britain today have become a culture war 'issue'. Despite making up less than one per cent of the country's population, they are the subjects of a toxic and increasingly polarised 'debate', which generates reliable controversy for newspapers and talk shows. This media frenzy conceals a simple fact: that we are having the wrong conversation, a conversation in which trans people themselves are reduced to a talking point and denied a meaningful voice.
In this powerful new book, Shon Faye reclaims the idea of the 'transgender issue' to uncover the reality of what it means to be trans in a transphobic society. In doing so, she provides a compelling, wide-ranging analysis of trans lives from youth to old age, exploring work, family, housing, healthcare, the prison system and trans participation in the LGBTQ+ and feminist communities, in contemporary Britain and beyond.
The Transgender Issue is a landmark work that signals the beginning of a new healthier conversation about trans life. It is a manifesto for change and a call for justice and solidarity between all marginalised people and minorities. Trans liberation, as Faye sees it, goes to the root of what our society is and what it could be; it offers the possibility of a more just, free and joyful world for all of us.

a MUST read
A brilliant book, well explained and very well-read. It has clarified so much for me, and I cannot recommend it enough. It's like nothing, I've ever read before.

Eye opening
I was suggested this book by a friend after a conversation about gender in general. I admitted to not knowing enough in the regard of the trans community. A quarter of the way into this book and I have come to realise that my views on a more binary society were wrong. This book is a must for someone who wants to know more before forming an opinion on something as delicate as anothers body, perception and identity. 10/10.
