Over the next few years, she discovered both a community of disabled people and a paucity of literature and public understanding about their lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn response, she began soliciting the manuscripts that make up \u003ci\u003e\"What Happened to You?\"\u003c\/i\u003e, a candid, powerful, and often hilarious collection of fiction, essays, and poetry by women with disabilities. Coming from a wide range of backgrounds and ages, impairments and experiences, the thirty-six women included in the book write on everything from access to abuse, equality to equanimity, in what may well be the definitive volume on living with a disability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt the same time, this anthology tells a universal story about dealing with pain and illness, about overcoming prejudice and unjust legislation, and about the importance, regardless of an individual's fortitude, of creating a community.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lois Keith\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1565840259\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781565840256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e New Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/1996\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 223\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.89lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.56h x 5.71w x 0.87d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/1996 pg. 120\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/1996 pg. 1652","brand":"Lois Keith","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44129517666559,"sku":"9781565840256","price":22.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0cb3e376-36f5-4d48-85f7-efcf7e8f64df.jpg?v=1687464344","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/what-happened-to-you-lois-keith-9781565840256","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
