Losing Music by John Cotter
4.0
I often have a heavy dose of skepticism when it comes to books about Deafness, but Cotter managed to win me over.
The day to day of living with hearing aids. Discussions about restaurants, bars, conversations with more than 3 people. Cotter gets the little things right.
I did somewhat lose the plot a bit around the beginning of part 2, and Cotter treats the memoir as an exploration more of illness than that of disability. His prose, however, reflects a great love for sound. Worth a read, and it's quick.
