Bloom: a midlife transgender memoir

"There is perhaps no more critical time than now for a raw, front-row account of the personal sacrifices transgender people must take to live authentically - and of the benefits that flow from being at peace with oneself even as the world rages. I believe my story of coming out as a transgender woman in my 40s-after having been raised Mormon, serving in the military for over a decade, and working at one of the most prestigious law firms in the world-not only illustrates how deep gender dysphoria can run, but also that transgender people are your neighbors, co-workers, and friends"-- Provided by publisher.
