Shon Faye is a writer based in London. She was an editor-at-large at Dazed, and her writing has been published by the Guardian, the Independent and Vice, among others. Faye recently launched an acclaimed podcast series, Call Me Mother, interviewing trailblazing LGBTQ elders. This is her first book.

"Shon Faye makes a compelling case that transgender issues are inexorably linked with other social justice causes. The result is a bold and pragmatic guide for challenging societal transphobia comprehensively and intersectionally."
--Julia Serano, author of Sexed Up

"My god, this book couldn't be more timely here in the USA. I hope that all of my trans family come to understand from this book that no matter how hard others try to make us an issue, we are first and always people, individuals, and brave ones at that."
--Kate Bornstein, author of Gender Outlaw

"Writing with astonishing patience, clarity, and ethical force, Shon Faye has gifted us an essential primer for our times. The Transgender Issue calls us into a much-needed solidarity, and makes the project of constructing and inhabiting a more free and just world for everyone feel urgent, possible, and exhilarating."
--Maggie Nelson, author of On Freedom

"Faye writes with admirable clarity, and, accordingly, her book is accessible to general readers ... It sheds essential light on a subject that is widely misunderstood-driven, unfortunately, by too many people's ignorance, which, one hopes, this volume will help correct."
--Booklist
