This is an excellent follow-up and expansion on the essays included in Disability Visibility. Where Disability Visibility expanded my understanding of disability justice, accessibility, and ableism, Disability Intimacy expanded my understanding of being disabled, living in community with disabled and non-disabled folks, and the many ways we experience intimacy with ourselves and others. I was pleasantly surprised by how many essays featured those with "invisible" disabilities, like ADHD, and how many reflected on the points at which they considered themselves disabled. I've not considered if I have a place within the disability community since my OCD diagnosis, and these essays were compelling and affirming. The essays I know I will take with me, though, were those by disabled parents and caregivers. A parent soothing their toddler to the sleep with the sound of their C-Pap, reveling in rest and "laziness," a resource parent/foster parent caring for an infant, providing security and comfort to a new human and adapting infant care for greater accessibility. These essays were such beautiful reflections for this time in my life as a parent of young kids, and I am so grateful for them. 

This is a compelling and diverse anthology that allows us to witness and reflect on intimacy in many forms, and whether or not you've read Disability Visibility, I highly recommend it. As a note, the full-cast audio narration was excellent.
