Correct answer: C. The Beast with Nine Billion Feet

Explanation

Anil Menon's The Beast with Nine Billion Feet (2009) is young-adult science fiction. Dayanita Singh's photobook on the hijra Mona Ahmed, Roy's Anjum, and J. Michael Bailey's book on gender variance all deal with transgender lives.

Note: The source attributes The Man Who Would Be Queen to Hoshang Merchant; it is by J. Michael Bailey (2003).
