Sexy and Poetic

This book uses love and other stories to tell about the nasty things Alexander Graham Bell has done to deaf education in North America. Everybody gets a voice in this historical version, from Mabel to Watson. It is beautifully written, bringing together many perspectives that speak to each other evocatively. I learned so much about deaf culture, and I couldn't put it down. I can't wait to check out Markotic's poetry!
