A Tamil refugee escaping the civil war in Sri Lanka, through India to Europe, Thanuja's life is complicated by migration and gender transition. Confusion, pleasure and betrayal characterise the circuitous path to recognising herself as a woman. Gender reassignment surgery is a milestone, but there are difficulties ahead. In Thanuja's words, 'No one can even imagine what happens in a transwoman's life. You cannot understand us with mainstream norms, laws, culture, literature and principles. We have been betrayed by history.'

This powerful memoir weaves family life, sexual awakening, work life, globe-spanning journeys and the navigation of state laws and regulations to present a fully human portrait of ambiguity and joyful contradiction, of a refugee claiming citizenship and of a transwoman claiming her body and dignity.

Thanuja is a dental hygienist in Düsseldorf committed to advancing her education with plans to further her studies in Healthcare Management. However, her true passion lies beyond the walls of academia and dental practice. She has dedicated herself to activism focusing on the LGBTQIA+ community, a cause close to her heart. Through social media, she has built a platform to amplify voices, spread awareness and foster understanding and acceptance. With over a million followers on TikTok, 220,000 subscribers on YouTube, and substantial followings on Instagram, Facebook and other platforms, she has been able to reach and impact countless lives. Her work has not gone unnoticed; she was honoured with YouTube's Silver Button, a testament to the growing acceptance and support of the LGBTQIA+ community.
