About this book
Writer and teacher Rebekah Taussig grew up a polio survivor and wheelchair user, and here she invites readers into the everyday textures of a disabled life—dating, work, home, and the language we use for bodies. In concise, witty essays, she dismantles clichés of inspiration and pity, charts the architecture of access, and shows how intimacy flourishes through interdependence and care. Warm yet incisive, this collection blends personal narrative with cultural critique, making big ideas approachable in bite-sized chapters perfect for night-by-night reading. It’s an eye-opening, compassionate companion for anyone seeking to better understand disability—and show up more thoughtfully in relationships.
