This powerful book documents the unspoken stories of a diversity of gender embodiments across the post-Yugoslav states, uncovering how they have navigated the murky waters of war, racism, capitalism and transphobia.
Written by an interdisciplinary collective of authors, the book unleashes the knowledge concentrated in trans lives and resists trans erasures in Eastern Europe and beyond.
