Extraordinary insight into living without sight

Outside Myself will enlighten both young and old. Tallie is a young girl struggling to adjust to her blindness. Benjamin is an older gentleman working in a library for the blind. A chance phone call between them leads to a transformative year, and a window of understanding is flung open as empathy, independence, and resolution rush in.

Industry Reviews

“It is SO REFRESHING to encounter people with disabilities in a story who are not merely heroic. Ultimately, these are heroic individuals as agents in their own lives, but they are not ‘brave blind people.’”
— Jacquelyn Mitchard, author of #1 New York Times Bestseller The Deep End of the Ocean

“Rich in sensory detail, this story offers rare and authentic insight into navigating the world without sight, but it’s really about loneliness and making connections and being human.”
— Suzanne Kamata, author of Gadget Girl

“This is fiction that causes us to understand much that we would miss and does so with true vibrant charm.”
— Joan Silber, author of Fools

“...experiencing blindness—and its confluence with race, religion, education, illness, friendship, and family—in separate, yet intersecting ways.”
— Nicole Haroutunian, author of Speed Dreaming

“Outside Myself is a powerful narrative about adolescent angst and the ability of a mentor to change lives, including his own.”
— Anna Swenson, author of Beginning with Braille
