Reseña del libro "Tranny: A Transsexual Tale (en Inglés)"
"I paid $500 to have my balls cut off."Born one way, but living another, Nicky K. has it all: low standards, unfulfilled dreams, tragic mulatto angst, a history of sexual abuse, a dead Daddy who is now a pestering car wreck mangled ghost who won't quit criticizing, several obese, depressed, White women as co-dependent BFFs;hostile and enviable male to female transsexuals in her therapy group;a friend/former pimp who will only walk five steps ahead of her so as not to be spooked by her bad hair days and a host of (pseudo, kinda, sorta, maybe) boyfriends including: an ex-convict/former model who was HIV infected by a TV star, stalked classmates in their dorm rooms, a married skoliosexual employerhusband material in a Dominican man., who loves her male appendage....a little too much, a porn star who secretly dates her roommate, a Pakistani conductor of the 7 train in Queens (with a violent wife), a childhood molester who she dates on and off again, and, a half brother who she's infatuated with....who is willing to mess around.Scrambling from one madness to another delusion to another reality trauma, borne of parents: a Greek/Black preternaturally, beautiful mother, a new stepfather who think the Republican saturated Orthodox Church has the answers to sexuality confusion.a vicious, living (now dead) father, who even his own parents think is evil.Nicky K tries practicing, and occasionally turning, every trick in the book, for acceptance and success. From auditioning for Broadway shows, to a decade long unsuccessful long college career, to stripping, to being a secretary with benefits, to hardcore prostitution and occasional degradation in sex clubs or from picking up random men. All in a mesmerizing attempt to get up the balls (and cash), to have them cut off.....all told by Nicky K in her own words
