Anne's Metamorphosis Author: Anne Jayne Kuipers Publisher: Cameleon Books, Cape Town ISBN: 062027221X Publishing Date: December 2001
In her book Anne tells her full story of her metamorphosis from male to female. This is not merely a biography, but a true-life story (as Anne calls it) because this book does not tell a story to fit a certain profile, but instead takes the reader through the personal life experience of the author herself. It is precisely this, that makes this book the first of its kind.

Reclaiming Genders: transsexual Grammars at the Fin de Siecle Author: Kate More Publisher: Cassell ISBN: 0304337765 Publishing Date: 1999 Pages: 309 Format: Hardcover
An interdisciplinary work bringing together an international group of transgender writers, this text provides a collection of essays that are central to both academia and activism. Based on academic and "street" experiences, the book addresses the practical issues faced in changing the world view of gender while forcing theory a step forward from limitations of "queer", feminism and postmodernism. In a wide-ranging set of contributions, it addresses our engendered places now and what we can aim for in the future. It evaluates the mechanism we can use to galvanize both the micro theories of gender as a personal experience of oppression and the macro theories of gender as a site of social regulation. The collection aimes to take identity politics and reclaim identity for the "self".

The volume brings together papers by African and Nordic/Scandinavian gender scholars and anthropologists, in attempts to investigate and critically discuss existing lines of thinking about sexuality in Africa, while at the same time creating space for alternative approaches. Issues of colonial and contemporary discourses on 'African sexuality' and on 'female genital mutilation' are being discussed, as well as issues of female agency and of feminists engagement with HIV/AIDS. The volume contributes to contemporary efforts of re-thinking sexualities in the light of feminist, queer and postcolonial theory.
