More Description

Christine Benvenuto had been married for more than twenty years—with three young children—when her husband confessed that he wanted to become a woman. Part memoir, part voyeur's look into a marriage, Sex Changes is a journey through the end of a marriage and out the other side. We see a mother, desperate to save her family, discover a well of strength she never knew she had. We learn what to tell the neighbors when your husband starts wearing heels. We see a woman open herself up to friends who travel with her through her darkest times, providing light and levity throughout. As she loses her husband to skirts and hormones, life makes Chris a better woman. Sex Changes is the story of what one woman discovered about herself in the midst of the conflagration of her family. Fiercely funny, self-lacerating, and not entirely politically correct, this book is a journey of love and anguish told with hilarity, heartbreak, and a lot of soul searching.
