A memoir about disability, motherhood, and a journey to far-flung places in search of a new way of seeing and being seen.
What The Reviewers Say
[Jones] long believed that the only way to deserve anyone else’s respect, much less desire, was to 'be extraordinary in all other aspects,' brilliant and witty and humorous and cool. If the book is any proof, Jones is all these things. But there’s more to this gorgeous, vividly alive memoir.
Transcendent.
Jones’ soul-stretching, breathtaking existential memoir chronicles her reclaiming of body, mind, and self.
Jones...presents, with unflinching honesty, this memoir about living with disability.
