Overview
Notes From Your Bookseller Adèle Rosenfeld's groundbreaking novel reminds us that we don't need ears to hear. The young girl at the center of this novel moves through the world with a curiosity and openness we can all learn from. Since she was little, Louise has been not quite hearing and not quite deaf—her life with this invisible disability has been one of in-betweenness. After an audiology test shows that almost all her hearing is gone, her doctor suggests getting a cochlear implant. The operation will be irreversible, making the decision all the more fraught. The technology would give Louise a new sense of hearing—but it would be at the expense of her natural hearing, which, for all its weakness, has shaped her unique relationship with the world, full of whispers and shadows.
