Summary:
"' I want what I want... not what other people think I ought to want.' What Wendy Ross wants is simple-- to live and love openly as a modern, independent woman. The problem is that according to her birth certificate her name is Roy Clark and she is a boy. Mistreated by her father, who is appalled at having such a child, misunderstood by her sister, whose clothes she has stolen, and committed to a mental hospital where she is mistaken for a homosexual, Wendy finally gets her chance to escape when she turns twenty-one and inherits a small legacy. But life isn't easy for a trans woman in 1960s England, and things get even more complicated when she falls in love with the handsome Frank..." -- Cover.
