<em>When my third child was born, I was told I had a boy. The baby was given a boy's name and raised in that gender. But when she died, twenty years later, she died as my daughter, and will forever be remembered that way.</em>
Alice Litman died by suicide in May 2022, aged just twenty years old, having already waited almost three years for her first appointment at a gender identity clinic.
In stunningly beautiful prose, Caroline Litman captures the realities of an often-messy journey navigating both her daughter's transition and the days, weeks and months after Alice's death.
Searing, urgent and utterly unique, <em>Her Name is Alice</em> is the raw, human story of a mother's love and grief for her child - and of a young trans woman who is impossible to forget and who <em>must</em> be remembered.
