On The Fence

On the Fence: The Hidden World of the Hard of Hearing delivers a rare inside look at a virtually invisible population. Deaf writer Mark Drolsbaugh, who grew up hard of hearing, has assembled a group of thirty-seven talented writers who share their remarkable stories and poems. Together, they shed light on the hard of hearing experience and what it means to be on the fence—hovering somewhere in between the deaf and hearing worlds. Stereotypes are smashed as each writer shares a unique perspective that may radically differ from the others. You’ll find an American Sign Language advocate in one chapter and a cochlear implant advocate in the next— anything goes! But don’t let the diversity fool you; while no one is exactly the same, deep down we all share one common goal. Find it in On the Fence: The Hidden World of the Hard of Hearing.
