Alice Litman died by suicide in May 2022, aged just twenty years old, having already waited almost three years for her first appointment at an NHS gender-identity clinic. In beautiful prose, Caroline Litman captures the realities of an often-messy journey navigating both her daughter's transition and the days, weeks and months after Alice's death. 'Her Name is Alice' is the raw, human story of a mother's love and grief for her child - and of a young trans woman who is impossible to forget and who must be remembered.
