520    "Riveting, rousing, and utterly real, Surpassing Certainty
       is a portrait of a young woman searching for her purpose 
       and place in the world--without a road map to guide her. 
       The journey begins a few months before her twentieth 
       birthday. Janet Mock is adjusting to her days as a first-
       generation college student at the University of Hawaii and
       her nights as a dancer at a strip club. Finally content in
       her body, she vacillates between flaunting and concealing 
       herself as she navigates dating and disclosure, sex and 
       intimacy, and most important, letting herself be truly 
       seen. Under the neon lights of Club Nu, Janet meets Troy, 
       a yeoman stationed at Pearl Harbor naval base, who becomes
       her first. The pleasures and perils of their union serve 
       as a backdrop for Janet's progression through her early 
       twenties with all the universal growing pains--falling in 
       and out of love, living away from home, and figuring out 
       what she wants to do with her life. Despite her 
       disadvantages, fueled by her dreams and inimitable drive, 
       Janet makes her way through New York City while holding 
       her truth close. She builds a career in the highly 
       competitive world of magazine publishing--within the 
       unique context of being trans, a woman, and a person of 
       color. Long before she became one of the world's most 
       respected media figures and lauded leaders for equality 
       and justice, Janet was a girl taking the time she needed 
       to just be--to learn how to advocate for herself before 
       becoming an advocate for others. As you witness Janet's 
       slow-won success and painful failures, Surpassing 
       Certainty will embolden you, shift the way you see others,
       and affirm your journey in search of self"--Provided by 
       publisher.
