DESCRIPTION:
Uncovering stories about disability history and life, OToole shares her firsthand account of some of the most dramatic events in Disability History, and gives voice to those too often yet left out. This book of essays chronicles one person's life, but also the 40 years that disability rights and disability justice shaped American history. It establishes a new standard, perhaps even the beginning of a new aesthetic, for disability writing." - Margaret Price, author of Mad at School: Rhetorics of Mental Disability and Academic Life. Fading Scars combines razor-sharp organization with passages
