Nina Here Nor There

Transgender people and issues have exploded into the mainstream media over the last few years, and there are few people today who haven't heard the phrase "born in the wrong body." Yet for all of the people who fit that phrase, there are scores more fighting for the right to inhabit both and neither, to pick and choose, to affirm the complexity of gender beyond the two strictly enforced bathroom options.Nina Here Nor Thereis the first memoir in 15 years to take readers beyond the standard "sex change" narrative. Picking up where Leslie Feinberg's best-sellingStone Butch Blues(1993) left off,Nina Here Nor Theretells the story of the next generation of transgender warriors. Taking readers to the front lines of gender and sexuality, this candid and humorous memoir of gender awakening is at its heart a classic tale of first love and self-discovery.

A native of New York, Nick Krieger realized at the age of twenty-one that he’d been born on the wrong coast, a malady he corrected by transitioning to San Francisco. His writing has earned several travel-writing awards and has been published in multiple travel guides.
