Despite this Flesh: The Disabled in Stories and Poems
Vassar Miller
An anthology of fiction and poetry about people with motor and sensory disabilities.
Commendation Quotes: This selection of fiction and poetry about handicapped people has no parallel elsewhere in the publishing world.... [It] is not sentimental. It is not unduly symbolic. It does not directly exhort readers, both handicapped and able-bodied, to lead a better life. What it does is to expand all readers' knowledge of the inner worlds of handicapped people and thereby enable all of us to be less frightened, more realistic, more able to embrace our own humanity.... We need--all of us--Ms. Miller's anthology. Review Citations:
