For my bday coming up-I treated myself to a subscription to Slightly Foxed. It‘s a delightful publishing company that puts out a quarterly journal + old classics. I came across an edition they did of my favorite, 84 Charing Cross Road. Their podcast is also so charming! It‘s makes me want to grab a cup of tea before settling in hear their lovely voices talk about books. It‘s an Anglophile‘s dream. I‘m thrilled with my first installment
Jan (formerly Jim) Morris describing what her life was like as a woman after her gender reassignment surgery in 1972, quoted in "In The Darkroom."
This was a whole genre of "Rebirth" literature I was not familiar with.
