It is a clarion call to live one’s most authentic life.” — The Boston Globe “Not to be missed, I Heard Her Call My Name is a powerful example of self-reflection and a vibrant exploration of the modern dynamics of gender and identity.” — Lit Hub’s Most Anticipated Books of 2024 An iconic writer’s lapidary memoir of a life spent pursuing a dream of artistic truth while evading the truth of her own gender identity, until, finally, she turned to face who she really was For a long time, Lucy Sante felt unsure of her place. Born in Belgium, the only child of conservative working-class Catholic parents who transplanted their little family to the United States, she felt at home only when she moved to New York City in the early 1970s and found her people among a band of fellow bohemians. Some would die young, to drugs and AIDS, and some would become jarringly famous. Sante flirted with both fates, on her way to building an estimable career as a writer. But she still felt like her life a performance. She was presenting a façade, even to herself. Sante’s memoir braids together two threads of personal narrative: the arc of her life, and her recent step-by-step transition to a place of inner and outer alignment. Sante brings a loving irony to her account of her unsteady first steps; there was much she found she still needed to learn about being a woman after some sixty years cloaked in a man’s identity, in a man’s world. A marvel of grace and empathy, I Heard Her Call My Name parses with great sensitivity many issues that touch our lives deeply, of gender identity and far beyond. 538 $a Requires the Libby app or a modern web browser. 650 17 $a Nonfiction. $2 OverDrive 650 7 $a Biography & Autobiography. $2 OverDrive 650 7 $a Family & Relationships. $2 OverDrive 650 7 $a LGBTQIA+ (Nonfiction). $2 OverDrive 655 7 $a Electronic books. $2 local 700 1 $a Sante, Lucy. 856 40 $u http://link.overdrive.com/?websiteID=251&titleID=9893119 $z Click to download here. 856 4 $3 Excerpt $u https://samples.overdrive.com/?crid=5ce46865-7390-466b-94af-a4032081fc1f&.epub-sample.overdrive.com $z Sample 856 4 $3 Image $u https://img1.od-cdn.com/ImageType-100/1191-1/%7B5CE46865-7390-466B-94AF-A4032081FC1F%7DIMG100.JPG $z Large cover image 856 4 $3 Thumbnail $u https://img1.od-cdn.com/ImageType-200/1191-1/%7B5CE46865-7390-466B-94AF-A4032081FC1F%7DIMG200.JPG $z Thumbnail cover image 856 40 $3 Click for more information $u https://api.overdrive.com/v1/collections/v1L1B0wAAAA2Z/products/5ce46865-7390-466b-94af-a4032081fc1f $x 1370 941 $a 1 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20240305011512.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3864C884DABE11EEBE8532184BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
