You're Not Dead: The story of a boy
You're Not Dead chronicles its Hero's travels during his ten-month hospitalization, beginning with his viral meningoencephalitis, and ending with his struggle to regain his life and independence.
Acerbic and illuminating, You're Not Dead pulls the reader into the Hero's lived experience, while peeling away the layers of politeness we often use when discussing disability.
The Hero is brutally honest as he writes of his journey through the medical system. He speaks of overwhelming pessimism, of pronouncements from "on high" made with little knowledge of his condition or progress, and of being spoken at, rather than being spoken to.
You're Not Dead is both devastating and inspiring, highlighting the importance of perseverance in the face of profound adversity.
