Dandelion Heart
Book information
Description
A love letter to all the minds and bodies the world is still trying to force into a mould long broken. Dandelion Heart is an eye-opening collection of poignant essays and poetry that grapples with disability in an identity-driven world. Exploring powerful themes ranging from body image and self-esteem to sex, relationships, and mental health, author and disability rights advocate, Kelly Vincent, draws on her own experiences as an autistic and physically disabled person. Using artful prose and disability as a lens to examine the kaleidoscope of the human experience, this collection offers a deeply personal glimpse into practising acceptance, the desire for visibility, and challenging society's perceptions of what it means to be disabled; indeed, what it means to be human.
