If you grew up in a feminist household, the trademark navy-blue spine of Susan Faludi’s gender-equity classic Backlash was probably a fixture on your parents’ bookshelf. Now, Faludi’s back, with a groundbreaking new work, In the Dark Room, which charts her father’s gender transition in a time when the fluidity of gender and the rights of trans people are seeping more and more into the collective conscience. This is going to be a big book, so get in there early. MEGAN BURBANK
