Metagnosis
Bridging memoir with key concepts in narratology, philosophy and history of medicine, and disability studies, this book identifies and names the phenomenon of metagnosis: the experience of learning in adulthood of a longstanding condition. It can occur when the condition has remained undetected (e.g. colorblindness) and/or when the diagnostic categories themselves have shifted (e.g. ADHD).

A naked man survives a meteoric plunge from a cloudless sky, and a small-town TV reporter rushes to get the story.

Be Now, Buddy What is a satire about fame, the news media, organized religion, the Internet, and people who let strangers into their homes.
