Publisher's Synopsis
The Suspect Speaker Series comprises short stories about people with aphasia, the loss of a previously held ability to speak or understand spoken or written language, due to disease or brain injury, mainly stroke.
The Suspect Speaker and the More Suspect Speaking introduced the consequences of aphasia with 30 short, short stories.
This is the third in the series. Even More Suspect Speaking has seven short stories, a group of five connected short stories and poems, all about people with communication difficulties.
The short stories have two versions:
- The "A" versions has shorter sentences and more gaps - perfect for people with aphasia.
- The "B" version is fuller. It has more descriptive prose - perfect for carers and family members who have an acquaintance with aphasia and what it means.
The poems are in several styles - Haiku, Limericks, Sonnets, Free Verse, and even a Villanelle - but they are all about aphasia and the consequences of this condition.
