Overview

""The Name I Chosen for Myself"" by Samantha T. Jones Some stories don't ask to be told. They demand it. ""The Name I Chose for Myself"" is the intimate and courageous journey of Samantha, born Salvatore in a small Sicilian village where silence was law and difference was a sentence. From the dusty mirror of a grandmother's room to the operating theaters of Milan, from the alleyways of Palermo to the bureaucratic offices that finally return a name, this is the story of a woman who had to fight for the most fundamental of all rights: the right to be herself. Written with rare honesty and a prose that breathes alongside its protagonist, this novel is not only a story of gender transition. It is a universal story of identity, love, courage and redemption. Of fathers who speak through orange trees. Of friends who become sisters. Of a love that asks no explanations and fears no judgment. Tender, powerful and deeply human, ""The Name I Chose for Myself"" reminds us that our truest home is not a place. It is the moment when we finally stop being afraid of the person looking back at us in the mirror. For anyone who has ever had to choose between who the world wanted them to be and who they truly are.
