Circle of Acceptance Phoebe Maurer

Our birth certificates say male or female. Do you ever wonder about the countless people in our world who are not at peace with the bodies they were born with? In Circle of Acceptance we see this profound human dilemma explored with thoughtful empathy. After many years of marriage, John can no longer deny the conflicting feelings about his gender. Suicide or sexual change is his only alternative for living a full life. His commitment to life makes John's action compelling. This goes unchallenged until turbulent emotions spew over like hot volcanic lava, creating widespread damage that sweeps his family and friends over an unstable path until the final page. Will the solution give him and his family peace? Is it possible to live a full life.
