Man alive : a true story of violence, forgiveness and becoming a man
McBee, Thomas Page2017
Books
If he is to become a man, what sort of man should Thomas Page McBee be? To find out, McBee must confront the suffering he has endured at the hands of men: the abuse he endured as a child from his father, and the violent mugging which almost killed him as an adult. Standing at the brink of the life-changing decision to transition from female to male, McBee seeks to understand these examples of flawed manhood, and reclaim his body on his own terms. Powerful, uplifting and profound, 'Man Alive' is a story about transformation; about freedom, and love, and finding the strength to rebuild ourselves as the people we are meant to be.
