- Summary:
-
In this poignant and powerful memoir, the author tells the story of both her mother's childhood - growing up deaf in the 1920s in rural Victoria - and her own childhood with deaf parents. Through intimate and evocative prose, Dawn explores the challenges and joys of living in a world of difference, navigating the difficulties that come with being a child of deaf parents as well as the strength and resilience that comes with love and belonging. She shares her unique and deeply personal perspective on what it means to be a part of the diverse and vibrant Deaf culture. Beautifully written and deeply moving, Unheard Voices is an exploration of what it means to be a part of a diverse and vibrant culture.
