piyali 's review for:
The Boys of Riverside: A Deaf Football Team and a Quest for Glory
by Thomas Fuller
While I glossed over some parts of the football play calling, I was very interested in the lives of the young footballers and their coaches as deaf athletes playing football with their hearing counterparts. The history of deaf culture and how it is a bustling, thriving community was especially good to read. I had read and loved and changed my perspective after reading True Biz by Sara Novic. This book was a non fiction version of some of the history (like the Milan conference where they banned signing for deaf people resulting in tremendous language deficiency in deaf children) of Deaf people.
