As well as regularly contributing to outlets like Dazed and Vice, she will also be publishing her first book this September, the hotly-anticipated non-fiction work The Transgender Issue: An Argument for Justice. It’s set to be an authoritative and widely-discussed account of the contemporary struggle for trans rights – something which sadly remains a deeply contentious issue within UK politics.
