Review:
"Inspired.... [a] highly original novel.... Impossible to put down."-USA Today "Trans-Sister Radio...bears Bohjalian's hallmark: ordinary people in heartbreaking circumstances behaving with grace and dignity.... Speaks directly to the heart."-San Francisco Chronicle "Bohjalian has...written an interesting [and] ultimately, a quite daring novel, and a worthy successor to Midwives. Like that novel, Trans-Sister Radio challenges readers' most dearly held notions of biological reality."-Philadelphia Inquirer "An insightful look at love and sexuality...with great compassion and insight."-Los Angeles Times
"A though-provoking tale with a rich, varied texture.... [An] addictive read."-The Denver Post

He daughter, Carly, enthusiastically witnesses the changes in her mother. But then a few months into their relationship, Dana tells Allison his secret: he has always been certain that he is a woman born into the wrong skin, and soon he will have a sex change operation. Allison, overwhelmed by the depth of her passion, finds herself unable to leave Dana. By deciding to stay, she finds she must confront questions most people never even consider. Not only will her own life and Carly's be irrevocably changed, but she will have to contend with the outrage of a small Vermont community and come to terms with her lover's new body - hoping against hope that her love will transcend the physical.
