Description
Terry Galloway's memoir is a candid and humorous account of her life as a deaf queer woman. Born with a rare condition caused by an experimental antibiotic, Terry has used theater to cope with her experiences and defy the challenges she faces. From faking her own drowning at a camp for children with disabilities to navigating mental breakdowns and finding her place in the world, Terry's story is one of resilience and creativity. With disarming candor, she shares her struggles and triumphs, creating an unexpectedly affecting and hilarious take on life. This memoir offers a unique perspective on identity, community, and the power of performance to transcend adversity.
