Paperback. Condition: Very Good. 'I think it's wrong for me to complain that people don't understand disability and then refuse to talk about my personal life. Telling my story is the best way I know to make issues I care about understood' In autumn 2005, Alison Lapper's body became familiar to thousands of people when Marc Quin…n's 16-foot marble statue of her - Alison Lapper: Pregnant - was placed on Trafalgar Square's fourth plinth. MY LIFE IN MY HANDS is Alison's story: from her mother's rejection at birth, through a childhood deprived of affection in children's homes, to independence, a first class art degree, motherhood and critical success. Her resilience, fortitude and humour are humbling, yet she rejects any notion of 'bravery'. From the beginning, Alison was different to most children, yet through the strength of her personality and the nurturing of her artistic talents, she was determined to live as full a life as possible. MY LIFE IN MY HANDS challenges our perceptions of disability by showing how Alison overcame pain, prejudice, violence and loneliness to reach a state of happy independence. MY LIFE IN MY HANDS is an extraordinary and compelling story like no other. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Hardcover. Condition: neu. OVP Als sie zum ersten Mal die Marmorstatue der Venus von Milo sah, wusste sie, dass auch sie schön war. Alison Lapper kam 1965 mit einer schweren Behinderung zur Welt: Sie hat keine Arme und stark verkürzte Beine. Heute ist sie eine bekannte und vielfach ausgezeichnete Künstlerin, Fotografin, Malerin…- und Modell. Im September 2005 wird eine 4,7 Meter hohe Marmorstatue ihres Körpers am ehrwürdigen Trafalgar Square in London enthüllt: Alison Lapper, schwanger. Ohne jede Larmoyanz, dafür aber mit hinreißendem Mutterwitz beschreibt sie ihre Kinderzeit in einem Behindertenheim, die Auseinandersetzung mit ihren körperlichen Fähigkeiten und den Reaktionen fremder Menschen auf ihren Körper. Alison Lapper entdeckt die Kunst als das, "worin ich wirklich gut bin", und die positive Ausstrahlung, die sie auf viele Menschen hat. Mit siebzehn zieht sie in ihre eigene Wohnung, studiert Kunst in Brighton, heiratet einen nicht-behinderten Mann, der sie nach der Hochzeit jedoch als sein Eigentum betrachtet. Alison Lapper trennt sich von ihm. Als sie schwanger wird und ihr damaliger Freund sie verlässt, entschließt sich Alison, ihren Sohn Parys ohne seine Unterstützung zur Welt zu bringen und ihn selbst zu versorgen. Und sie tut es: auf ihre ganz eigene, mutige und lebenssprühende Art. Mitreißend und zutiefst bewegend: Die Lebensgeschichte einer behinderten Frau, Mutter und Künstlerin - voller Mut, Energie und Lebenslust! Titel/Bezeichnung Autobiografie einer Optimistin / Alison Lapper. Mit Guy Feldman.
