We heard about Munroe Bergdorf yesterday:
Helen Joyce received a £20,000 advance for her book Trans: When Ideology Meets Reality, which went on to sell over 23,000 physical copies in the UK and over 100,000 internationally. Munroe Bergdorf, by contrast, received a six-figure sum for Transitional, which sold fewer than 3,000 copies in the UK.
Despite a conspicuous lack of interest from the general public, he continues to be acclaimed – not least by the BBC:
The BBC has given Munroe Bergdorf a 40 minute platform to explain why he is in a 'lesbian' relationship with another man. This is part of a new series on what love is, in which every guest so far is an LGBT activist (Stephen Fry, Self Esteem, Richard Coles and Philippa Perry) pic.twitter.com/li99Fr2aUw
