This is a true story, a biography of a man who lost his penis in a circumcision accident when he was very young. The nation's best doctors working on the case felt a need to publish breaking news more than helping a family in need. But any person who saw this boy knew the experiment was a colossal failure. The story details his disastrous life in a down to earth manner.
Nothing is glorified, or changed to improve readability.
The facts are devastating enough. I think this book would be an excellent read for anyone coming of age in today's world. A lot of youngsters feel uncomfortable in their own skin as their bodies change and they turn into men or women. This book puts gender identity in perspective. It would probably be too harsh for a less mature audience, but I think getting this story out is essential progress for science and establishing society's lost morals.
