<p>If he is to become a man, what sort of man should Thomas Page McBee be?<br><br> To find out, Thomas must confront the suffering he has endured at the hands of men: the abuse he endured as a child from his father, and the violent mugging which almost killed him as an adult. Standing at the brink of the life-changing decision to transition from female to male, McBee seeks to understand these examples of flawed manhood, and reclaim his body on his own terms. <br><br> Powerful, uplifting and profound, <i>Man Alive</i> is a story about transformation; about freedom, and love, and finding the strength to rebuild ourselves as the people we are meant to be.</p>
