Title: Sybil
Author: Flora Rheta Schreiber

More amazing than any work of fiction, yet true in every word, it swept to the top of the bestseller lists and riveted the consciousness of the world. It's the story of a survivor of terrifying childhood abuse, victim of sudden and mystifying blackouts, and the first case of multiple personality ever to be psychoanalyzed. You're about to meet Sybil-and the sixteen selves to whom she played host, both women and men, each with a different personality, speech pattern, and even personal appearance. You'll experience the strangeness and fascination of one woman's rare affliction-and travel with her on her long, ultimately triumphant journey back to wholeness.

Author: Norah Vincent

Norah Vincent really did date women as a guy named Ned, retreat to a monastery, infiltrate a men's therapy group, get a job in a testosteronefuelled office and join a bowling league where, even as the worst player on her team, the other fellows still chucked her on the shoulder, offered tips, and promised she'd get a handle on it one of these days. Her score never did pass a hundred points. They just thought Ned was hopeless at bowling. They never thought she was a girl.
