Diana Goetsch’s Long Journey To Living As A Woman

Diana Goetsch grew up in a time when she didn’t have the language to help her understand what it meant to be trans. The poet chronicles her later-in-life transition in the memoir This Body I Wore. “I felt that the universe owed me 50 years as a female living this way,” she explains. “That’s crazy, but it’s this sense that I wanted more life.”
