Recalibrating Gravity - A Memoir In Verse

Welcome to the world of Mary Keating, a quick-witted, fun-loving paraplegic. (Note, however, that she cringes at being labeled.) Fifty years ago, Mary's wide-open world instantly contracted at age fifteen when a teenager drove her into an oak tree at maximum speed. With a wheelchair as a permanent accessory, she was no longer seen as ""hot"" or one of ""in"" crowd. She found herself transported into an alternate reality- defined now by her disability.When life becomes overwhelming, Mary jokingly pretends she's trapped in a bad B movie waiting for a new director. Her poetry collection reminds us, no matter how hard life may seem- grace, love, and humor will save us from despair and allow us to live our best life under any circumstances.
