Calling My Deadname Home book cover

Early in my gender transition, I tried killing off my female past. But my deadname, Talia, fought back. She kept barging into consciousness, insisting on being seen and integrated into the man I was becoming.My memoir, Calling My Deadname Home, is Talia and my story, and it goes beyond gender to explore what it means to come home.
