I heard her call my name : a memoir of transition / by Sante, Lucy,author.;
'I Heard Her Call My Name' is an iconic writer's lapidary memoir of a life spent pursuing a dream of artistic truth while evading the truth of her own gender identity, until, finally, she turned to face who she really was. Sante's memoir braids together two threads of personal narrative: the arc of her life, and her recent step-by-step transition to a place of inner and outer alignment. Sante brings a loving irony to her account of her unsteady first steps; there was much she found she still needed to learn about being a woman after some sixty years cloaked in a man's identity, in a man's world. A marvel of grace and empathy, 'I Heard Her Call My Name' parses with great sensitivity many issues that touch our lives deeply, of gender identity and far beyond.
