THE SHAPE OF SOUND: Fiona Murphy

The Shape of Sound by Fiona Murphy

THE SHAPE OF SOUND

by Fiona Murphy

Rave reviews from Helen Garner, Bri Lee and Sarah Krasnostein? It’s fair to say, Fi Murphy’s debut is a must read in 2021. A mix of memoir, essay-like explorations and big-hearted honesty, this is a story that will make you see the world differently. The Shape of Sound peels back the layers on deafness, on disability, and reveals as much about society as a whole as it does on the lived experience of disabled people in this country. Powerful, considered, and incredibly moving work.​
