Deaf utopia : a memoir-- and a love letter to a way of life  Cover Image Book Book

Deaf utopia : a memoir-- and a love letter to a way of life / Nyle DiMarco, with Robert Siebert.

Summary:

Before becoming the actor, producer, advocate, and model that people know today, Nyle DiMarco was half of a pair of Deaf twins born to a multi-generational Deaf family in Queens, New York. Nyle shares stories, both heartbreaking and humorous, of what it means to navigate a world built for hearing people. This is more than a memoir, it is a cultural anthem - a proud and defiant song of Deaf culture and a love letter to American Sign Language, Nyle's primary language.
