Recensione

“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
