Reddit reviews Misfortune: A Novel

Looks like he wrote a song and
a book.

I was born with a coat hanger in my mouth

Oh yeah, and I was dumped down south

I was found by the richest man in the world

Oh yeah, who bought me up as a girl

I found a book that is about a boy who is raised as a girl in old time England. Maybe it's your book? It's called Misfortune.
