In my first for the LA TIMES I reviewed Disability Intimacy edited by Alice Wong latimes.com/opinion/story/20…

'Disability Intimacy' starts a long-overdue conversation

Editor Alice Wong refuses to shut out the 'other' in this collection of essays, poems and stories on topics such as BDSM, queer love and intergenerational relationships.
