Among the Eunuchs 9781787383876 Leyla Jagiella - Free Tracked Delivery
25,45 €
A courageously personal exploration of gender identity across Muslim cultures, from the West to South Asia. From an early age, Leyla Jagiella knew that she would be defined by two things: being Muslim and being trans. Struggling to negotiate these identities in her conservative, small hometown, she travelled to India and Pakistan, where her life was changed by her time among third-gender communities. Known as hijras in India, khwajasaras in Pakistan, these marginal communities have traditionally been politically and culturally important, respected for their supernatural powers to bless or curse, and often serving as eunuchs in Mughal India’s palaces.
