Bathurst is a talented writer who can convey the sensory experience and feelings related to the loss of hearing (and regaining it) In addition to her personal experiences, Bathurst tells the stories of other groups affected by noise and its disorders: musicians, military personnel, factory workers; and investigates the science of sound, silence, hearing, and deafness. 20 percent of Americans, 48 million, report some degree of hearing loss. And one out of three people over the age of 65 has a hearing loss. Despite its prevalence, there is a negative stigma associated with hearing loss, especially among younger people, but it affects all ages. People are reluctant to talk about it, to go to doctors, and to wear hearing aids. And there aren't a lot of stories or books about people with hearing loss. Published to coincide with National Audiology Awareness Month (October) and publicity planned around this.
