Rebekah Taussig, 2020
CALL NO...: 02-BOO
TYPE......: Book
ACCESS....: SEE BELOW
A memoir in essays from a writer and teacher who has used a wheelchair since childhood, grown out of her Instagram project sitting_pretty. Sharp, warm, and specific on the everyday: kindness that condescends, ramps that end at a step, love, teaching, and the stories nondisabled culture tells about disabled bodies. One of the most accessible entry points into disability writing published this decade.
