Summary:
"A sequel to Janet Mock's 2014 memoir, Redefining Realness: my path to womanhood, identity, love & so much more. A portrait of a young woman searching for her purpose and place in the world. A few months before her twentieth birthday, Janet Mock is a first-generation
college
student at the University of Hawaii, spending her nights as a dancer at a strip club. Finally content in her body, she vacillates between flaunting and concealing herself as she navigates dating and disclosure, sex and intimacy. Under the neon lights of Club Nu, Janet meets Troy, a yeoman stationed at Pearl Harbor naval base, who becomes her first. The pleasures and perils of their union serve as a backdrop for Janet's progression through her early twenties - falling in and out of love, living away from home, and figuring out what she wants to do with her life. Fueled by her dreams and inimitable drive, Janet makes her way through New York City while holding her truth close. She builds a career in the highly competitive world of magazine publishing - within the unique context of being trans, a woman, and a person of color. She learned how to advocate for herself before becoming an advocate for others. Janet Mock is a journalist, TV host, and advocate whose work has appeared in Marie Claire, The New York Times, and Lenny. She produced HBO Network's The Trans List. Oprah Winfrey has called her a "fearless new voice" and "trailblazing leader" who "changed my way of thinking." Find out more at JanetMock.com."--Provided by publisher.
