Edición en Inglés
More Suspect Speaking features another fifteen short short stories featuring people who have difficulty in spoken communication. People with aphasia.
[Aphasia is the loss of a previously held ability to speak or understand spoken or written language, due to disease or brain injury.]
Rather than a biography or an academic text, these stories reflect the everyday experience of people with aphasia, their supporters and carers. In these tales, they will see themselves or their loved ones.
The vocabulary of these stories are deliberately adult because aphasia doesn't diminish intellect.
More Suspect Speaking stories give a taste of what aphasiacs go through.
More of the frustrations and blessings of life with aphasia.
Every day.
Every conversation.
Each story (except the last one) has three versions: A, B and C.
The A version is people who have an effort or difficulty in reading. The sentences are compact, the layout is spacious, and descriptions are sparse – perfect for people recovering from the effects of aphasia.
The C versions are for people who can read ('recovered' aphasiacs?) or people with aphasia who enjoy being read to – by carers, family members, supporters.
Or, for non-aphasiacs, these stories contain an inkling of what people with aphasia deal with.
The B versions are in-between. For some people with aphasia, re-reading the stories in their recovery could be therapeutic.
