Recalibrating Gravity: A Memoir in Verse

By Mary Keating

Book Overview

A powerful memoir in verse about living with disability, finding strength, and recalibrating life's gravity.

Welcome to the world of Mary Keating, a quick-witted, fun-loving paraplegic. Fifty years ago, Mary's wide-open world instantly contracted at age fifteen when a teenager drove her into an oak tree at maximum speed. With a wheelchair as a permanent accessory, she was no longer seen as "hot" or one of "in" crowd. She found herself transported into an alternate reality--defined now by her disability.

In Recalibrating Gravity, Keating's poetry collection reminds us that no matter how hard life may seem--grace, love, and humor will save us from despair and allow us to live our best life under any circumstances. This memoir in verse is for readers interested in poetry, memoirs, disability narratives, and stories of resilience and self-discovery.
