Wonderful variety of stories with ine common theme

This book is a compilation of stories featuring main characters with disabilities. All of the apocalypses are different. All of the characters are wonderfully developed and more than a personification of diagnostic criteria. None of the characters have "superpowers", which is unfortunately uncommon in disability literature. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in writing characters with disabilities or anyone who likes a solid collection of postapocalyptic stories.
