As a 16-year-old Catholic seminarian, Chris Sieb had a deep crush on fellow student Jack Canston. Now, 25 years after parting ways, Jack has transfered to the Kansas City diocese where he once again encounters Chris - now Father Sieb - a devoted priest and closeted gay man. After seeing each other for the first time, the two rekindle their boyhood yearnings, beginning a secret relationship. Their reverie is brief, however, abruptly shaken when another closeted priest in the diocese, a former classmate of the two, dies suddenly, an apparent suicide.

En kvindes forvandling er en autobiografisk roman om Édouard Louis' mor. Om hendes triste tilværelse gennem hans barndom og hendes frigørelse sent i livet. Lige dele tragisk forfaldshistorie og smuk genforeningshistorie. Både et råt portræt af et miljø gennemsyret af armod og et livsbekræftende vidnesbyrd om forvandlingens evige mulighed.
