But a feeling of home finally arrived when she moved to New York City in the early 1970s amidst her fellow bohemians. Through those electric years, some of her friends would die young, from drugs and AIDS, and others would become jarringly famous. Lucy flirted with both fates, on her way to building a glittering career as a writer. But she could never shake that feeling.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen she was finally ready, Lucy decided to confront the façade she'd been presenting to everyone, including herself, over these years. \u003ci\u003eI Heard Her Call My Name\u003c\/i\u003e is the story of that confrontation, of a life with a missing piece that with transition, falls into place. This a memoir of grace and wit that parses the issues of gender identity and far beyond with unbounding humility and hope.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'Radical, humble and wise' \u003cb\u003eHERMIONE HOBY\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'An astonishing, once-in-a-lifetime achievement'\u003cb\u003e HUA HSU\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'Vivid, encompassing and compassionate'\u003cb\u003e CATHERINE LACEY\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch4\u003eAutorenportrait\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eLucy Sante is the author of \u003ci\u003eLow Life\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eEvidence, The Factory of Facts\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eKill All Your Darlings\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eFolk Photography\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Other Paris\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eMaybe the People Would Be the Times\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eNineteen Reservoirs\u003c\/i\u003e.
