No, it has a recurring theme of transformation. You could read the first part as a trans allegory, but you could squint and do the same for Star wars or Harry Potter. It's the story of the chosen one

Not everything written by a trans person is a trans allegory. Trans people can tell other stories...a trans allegory is about that specific personal journey, not just influenced by it
