COUNTRY AND TOWN HOUSE'S BEST LGBTQ+ BOOKS OF 2024
WATERSTONES' BEST BOOKS OF 2023: POLITICS
We all transition. It's what binds us, not what separates us. Be it through moving from childhood to adolescence, our sexuality, our gender, in our relationship with love, our racial identity or individual purpose, every aspect of our lives is in transition; and if we can apply transitional thinking to our lives, we can begin to deconstruct both the internal barriers within ourselves and the external barriers between each other.
In this life-affirming, heartfelt and intimate book, activist, documentary filmmaker and model Munroe Bergdorf shares reflections from her own life to illustrate how transitioning is an essential part of all our lives.
Through the story of one woman's extraordinary mission to live with authenticity, Transitional shows us how to heal, how to build a stronger community and evolve, from a place of shame to a place of pride.
Ultimately, this book will teach us how transitioning benefits us all, both as individuals and in order to create a global consciousness, and how we can leaning into transition can help us move closer to a place of honesty and empathy in our lives.

Recenzii
A powerful rallying cry from an influential voice
This version of Bergdorf offers a glimpse into the human cost of being a Black trans activist in the unrelenting public sphere ... she puts herself on the firing line to make the world more tolerant for us all
The model and trans activist tells the story of her own search for authenticity and argues that we all transition, one way or another
Her much-anticipated manifesto on gender also aims to explore the transitions we all go through in life
As Bergdorf beautifully points out: we all transition. Whether it's growing up and coming of age, reacting to the things that happen to us, learning from our mistakes, dealing with trauma or finding love, we all evolve. This is the book that explores the things that bind us together
A manifesto on gender and an exploration of transitioning
By shining a light on the inevitable reality of change, it aims to bring us together and build a more understanding and inclusive world
A compelling non-fiction title from the model and activist that discusses fluidity of identity, sexuality and gender through the experience of transition every human faces at some point in their life
An intimate and life affirming exploration
I am forever in awe of Munroe and all of the incredible things she does
The transgender and model is trailblazing a way for the trans community through her activism
A riveting blend of memoir and manifesto . . . so enlightening and quotable, I found myself dog-earing every page
As you start reading Transitional, it might come as little surprise that every word of this honest and enriching book feels very carefully chosen. Then, as she settles into her story, you come to realise the extraordinary intelligence, insight and power of this tenacious woman. She writes unflinchingly about growing up different; a childhood spent trying to conceal the innate femininity that would distress family members, and the ostracisation she experienced at school. Profoundly articulate. Entirely wise. Beautifully real.
It's in this era of the complete dehumanisation of trans people that Munroe Bergdorf's debut book, Transitional, is needed more than ever. Transitional is a memoir that offers hope. It stretches way beyond Bergdorf's own gender transition story to explore the many transitions we all go through in our brief time on this earth. Crucially, it reframes the conversation away from the medicalisation of trans people - such a small part of the trans experience - and shifts focus onto the real story, sheer humanity.
The model and trans activist writes movingly on prejudice, navigating controversy and personal growth
