Few make the irrevocable transit across the gender line; far fewer write about it; no one has written as memorably. Crossingis the story of Deirdre McCloskey (formerly Donald), once a golden boy of conservative economics and a child of 1950s and 1960s privilege, and her dramatic and poignant journey to becoming a woman. In the month of June, get the free e-bookof Crossing: A Memoir.
“When I received Crossing, I wondered why the editors had not designated it for review by someone gay, or someone involved in the transgendered community. Reading it, I realized that I—a lifelong heterosexual woman—need this book. All of us need to consider the way our culture shapes gender expectations and makes unspoken but profoundly rigid gender assignments…. This is a woman worth knowing. She has given us a highly readable, dramatic account of her crossing.”—Maxine Kumin, The New York Times Book Review
