Overview
La novela debut de Anna Sortino es una exploración reveladora de la cultura sorda, su vastedad y sus hermosas complejidades.
Lilah está atrapada en su propio universo. Al menos así se siente tener pérdida auditiva, o sea, no ser “lo suficientemente sorda” ni oír lo suficiente como para cumplir con las expectativas del mundo. Pero este verano, está dispuesta a vivir un cambio.
Para mejorar su lengua de señas, se apunta como consejera en un campamento de verano para jóvenes sordos y ciegos. La aventura le permitirá rencontrarse con viejos amigos y conocer nuevos. También vivirá un romance que no estaba en sus planes, pero al que todas las señas apuntan.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Jenny Han meets CODA in this big-hearted YA debut about first love and Deaf pride at a summer camp.
Lilah is stuck in the middle. At least, that’s what having a hearing loss seems like sometimes—when you don’t feel “deaf enough” to identify as Deaf or hearing enough to meet the world’s expectations. But this summer, Lilah is ready for a change.
When Lilah becomes a counselor at a summer camp for the deaf and blind, her plan is to brush up on her ASL. Once there, she also finds a community. There are cute British lifeguards who break hearts but not rules, a YouTuber who’s just a bit desperate for clout, the campers Lilah’s responsible for (and overwhelmed by)—and then there’s Isaac, the dreamy Deaf counselor who volunteers to help Lilah with her signing.
Romance was never on the agenda, and Lilah’s not positive Isaac likes her that way. But all signs seem to point to love. Unless she’s reading them wrong? One thing’s for sure: Lilah wanted change, and things here . . . they're certainly different than what she’s used to.
