'Becoming a Man' explores one man's gender transition amid a pivotal political moment in America. It is the striking memoir of P. Carl's journey to become the man he always knew himself to be. For 50 years, he lived as a girl and a queer woman, building a career, a life, and a loving marriage, yet still waiting to realise himself in full. As Carl embarks on his gender transition, he takes us inside the complex shifts and questions that arise throughout - the alternating moments of arrival and estrangement. He writes intimately about how transitioning reconfigures both his own inner experience and his closest bonds - his 20-year relationship with his wife, Lynette; his already tumultuous relationships with his parents; and seemingly solid friendships that are subtly altered, often painfully and wordlessly.
