Description

Handwave Publications would like to welcome you to our web site. We would also like to thank you, our readers, for your interest in our books and thus making this web site possible in the first place. When we first published Deaf Again in 1997, our intent was to provide an empowering book for deaf readers to show their family and friends and say, "This is exactly how I felt." And that's exactly what happened. Soon afterwards, demand skyrocketed and we wound up publishing a revised edition in 2000. Since then, Deaf Again has been required reading in numerous ASL/Deaf Studies classes all over the United States and has also been an international hit in Canada, England, Germany, and Australia. Thanks to your support, we were able to roll up our sleeves and come out with Anything But Silent in 2004. Anything But Silent offers a deaf perspective rarely seen in print. It daringly enters the "there" in "don't go there" - and deftly (deafly?) gets away with it thanks to its zany sense of humor. After all, when we laugh at ourselves (trust us: in the deaf world, there's lots to laugh about) we drop our guard long enough to learn about ourselves.
