She was born with a rare congenital condition called sacral agenesis, which affects both the stature and gait, and so her pain is physical. But there is also the pain of being judged and pitied for her appearance, of being dismissed as "less than." The way she has been seen--or not seen--has informed her lens on the world for her entire life... But after unexpectedly becoming a mother (in violation of unspoken social taboos about the disabled body), she feels something in her shift, and Jones sets off on a journey across the globe, reclaiming the spaces she'd been denied and had denied herself. From the bars and domestic spaces of her life in Brooklyn to sculpture gardens in Rome; from film festivals in Utah to a BeyoncÌ concert in Milan; from a tennis tournament in California to the Killing Fields of Phnom Penh, Jones weaves memory, observation, experience, and aesthetic philosophy to probe the myths underlying our standards of beauty and desirability and interrogates her own complicity in upholding those myths. [This] is the rare memoir that has the power to make you see the world, and your place in it, with new eyes."-- $c Dust jacket flap. 600 10 $a Cooper Jones, ChloeÌ, $d 1983- 600 10 $a Cooper Jones, ChloeÌ, $d 1983- $x Travel. 650 0 $a Abnormalities, Human $v Biography. 650 0 $a Voyages and travels. 650 0 $a Body image. 650 0 $a Aesthetics $x Social aspects. 650 2 $a Body Image $0 (DNLM)D001828 650 6 $a Voyages. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0032731 650 6 $a Image du corps. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0348052 650 7 $a journeys. $2 aat $0 (CStmoGRI)aat300162867 650 7 $a BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Personal Memoirs. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / People with Disabilities. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a SCIENCE / Ethics. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Abnormalities, Human. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00794451 650 7 $a Aesthetics $x Social aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00798723 650 7 $a Body image. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00835344 650 7 $a Travel. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01155558 650 7 $a Voyages and travels. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01169308 650 7 $a Handicapped women $v Biography. $2 sears 650 7 $a Women journalists $v Biography. $2 sears 650 7 $a Colleges and universities $x Faculty $v Biography. $2 sears 650 7 $a Handicapped $v Biography. $2 sears 650 7 $a Journalists $v Biography. $2 sears 650 7 $a Teachers $z United States $v Biography. $2 sears 650 7 $a Birth defects. $2 sears 650 7 $a Body image. $2 sears 650 7 $a Aesthetics. $2 sears 655 0 $a Biography. 655 2 $a Autobiography $0 (DNLM)D020493 655 2 $a Biography $0 (DNLM)D019215 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919894 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919896 655 7 $a Travel writing. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919983 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Travel writing. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000000520 655 7 $a ReÌcits de voyages. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000001117 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 rvmgf $0 (CaQQLa)RVMGF-000000519 941 $a 1 $n 1 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20230626084726.0 $n 12 $p + 1 LP, 1 CD 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=42432068142511EE8E0ED416233FDB2A 994 $a C0 $b IOZInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
