Katherine's Diary

"I think now that I was irrational, even insane, at the time. My transsexualism had taken hold of me with such obsessive force that I could not concentrate on anything else. There I was, a fifty-year-old professional academic librarian who had desparately wanted to be female ever since memories began..." In 1986 John Cummings became Katherine Cummings and a while life changed. In this painfully honest account of John's transformation into a woman, Katerhine tells of years of fantasizing and cross-dressing behind locked doors, of the betrayal felt by her family and the final relief of surgery. Katherine's Diary covers a lifetime of self-discovery and self-destruction with acerbic wit and crisp observation.
