Mariette Pathy Allen The Gender Frontier
In her fascinating book, photographer Mariette Pathy Allen compassionately documents the lives of extraordinary individuals and of those who share their everyday routine. Through photographs and short written pieces, the reader is offered an intimate connection and insight of how their lives are affected by gender-related questions. As Allen says herself: "Transgendered people offer the rest of us a potentially exhilarating vision of fluidity, freed from traditional roles or definitions. They make vivid the questions: What is the essence of humanness beyond masculinity or femininity? What is the relationship of mind, body and soul..?" Apart from most books featuring the transgender topic, this is the first publication to include both female-to-male and male-to-female transgender people, youth, as well as Political activism.
