Sinopse
Brought to you by Penguin.
'The world was sadly not my lobster, it was a skimpy crayfish from a petrol station sandwich and it was on the turn.'
In this heartfelt, thought-provoking and often hilarious book, Lottie Jackson reflects on her experiences of living with disability: from the pitfalls of going shopping on a mobility scooter, and the headache of defining oneself on a tick-box form, to a slapstick scuffle with the so-called 'easy-pull' tights aid, and the intense pleasure of finally swapping a hospital gown for a slinky dress. Lottie captivatingly expresses the raw vulnerabilities, injustices and untold joys of disability, as well as the bizarre everyday occurrences that able-bodied people usually don't experience.
See Me Rolling is a playful, illuminating memoir, but it is also a clarion call for greater diversity and inclusion. In a world that idolises bodily perfection, too often people with disabilities are kept on the periphery and treated as a sum of their differences. In this dazzling debut, Lottie reveals why we must strive for change and redefine what it means to be disabled in every facet of life; from productivity, education and wellness, to social media, beauty and love. She has a voice that needs to be heard.
