Jessica Amanda Salmonson is transgendered? I never kknew that, which way? As for books, in additon to the ones already mentioned, I'd also suggest _Foreign Bodies_ by Stephen Dedman. It's not as good as his first novel (The Art of Arrow Cutting), but has features of interest and does have a good bit of gender (and body) swapping. -John Snead sneadj@mindspring.com > -----Original Message----- > From: Aline Ferreira [mailto:aline@mail.ua.pt] > Sent: Tuesday, October 31, 2000 11:39 AM > To: Multiple recipients of list > Subject: Re: Query > > > Dear all, > A student of mine is writing an MA thesis about transvestism, bodily > changes and gender as performance.

In particular, "And Salome Danced" by Kelley Eskridge, "Eat Reecebread" by Graham Joyce and Peter F. Hamilton, and "Motherhood, Etc." by L. Timmel Duchamp relate to transgender issues. Ian R.
