There are plenty of lighthearted moments as well. When Wong receives a direct message from a journalist asking for intimate details, “anger boiled forth.” Whether in response to her own experiences or the broader cultural thoughtlessness toward the disabled community, Wong conveys an “impulse to be gentle” mingled with “the need to make clear in no uncertain terms that some people need to” back off. In the wake of a friend’s death, for instance, she is “horrified to see media outlets … get the details about Stacey’s life wrong,” both at the time of her death and a year later. Wong’s anger and her humor permeate this book.
