The bestselling, seminal work of trans literature: a story of love, sex, selfhood, and understanding from Jennifer Finney Boylan   When she changed genders, she changed the world.  It was the groundbreaking publication of She’s Not There in 2003 that jump-started the transgender revolution. By turns hilarious and deeply moving, Boylan – a cast member on I Am Cait; an advisor to the television series Transparent, and a contributing opinion writer for the New York Times -- explores the territory that lies between men and women, examines changing friendships, and rejoices in the redeeming power of love and family.    She’s Not There was one of the first works to present trans experience from the perspective of a literary novelist, opening a door to new understanding of love, sex, gender, and identity.  Boylan inspired readers to ask the same questions she asked herself:  What is it that makes us---ourselves?  What does it mean to be a man, or a woman?  How much could my husband, or wife, change—and still be recognizable as the one I love?   Boylan’s humorous, wise voice helped make She’s Not There the first bestselling work by a transgender American--and transformed Boylan into a national spokeswoman for LGBTQ people, their families, and the people that love them.  This updated and revised edition also includes a new epilogue from Jenny’s wife Grace; it also contains the original afterward by her friend, novelist and Pulitzer Prize winner Richard Russo.   “Love will prevail,” said Boylan’s conservative mother, as she learned about her daughter’s identity. She’s Not There is the story that helped bring about a world in which that change seems almost possible.

If you are considering purchase of this book, or reading this review in the first place, there is a high probability that you are transgender, a friend or family member of someone who is transgender, or an LGBTQ ally. I can sum up the importance of this book in one short sentence: "It is our story". In the details, of course it's Jenny's story, but there are so many themes in this book that reflect experiences that are common to all of us in the transgender community, that anyone who is trans or related to a trans person will see themselves reflected in these pages as in a mirror. Jenny Boylan is a professor of English at Colby College in Maine, and has published both fiction and non-fiction works. Her writing style is enjoyable, easy to read, and inclusive. You will be drawn into her story as if she were telling it at a campfire and you are being invited to pull up a camp chair and share it with her. If you are indeed trans, I suggest you have a box of tissues handy as you read. Parts of this story are so emotional that you will be crying unless you have a heart made of ice. At other points, you will be laughing, as Jenny relates stories involving some of the crazy things she has done, or witnessed while visiting her often times zany grandmother, Gammie. This book will put you on an emotional roller-coaster, so make sure your seatbelt is properly fastened, and your tray table is in the fully upright and locked position, because you are in for a sometimes sad, other times happy, but always wonderful ride. The ending of this autobiography happens in 2002, and leaves quite a few unanswered questions as to what might have happened to various people in the years between then and now. Jenny has written two sequels to "She's Not There": one that covers her childhood in greater detail, "I'm Looking Through You", and "Stuck in the Middle With You", which picks up her story after the events in "She's Not There".
