Unspoken Longings

Bol

Desire is often treated as private, optional, or dangerous.For disabled people, it is rarely allowed at all.This book examines desire as a force shaped by bodies, relationships, time, systems, and power. Drawing from lived experience, disability justice, and psychological insight, it explores how desire is suppressed, distorted, and disciplined-and how it can be reclaimed without harm.From love and intimacy to autonomy, ambition, aging, and legacy, the book traces desire not as a problem to solve, but as a compass for dignity, alignment, and truth. It challenges narratives of gratitude, resilience, and "specialness," offering instead a language for ethical wanting, partial fulfillment, and living with what cannot be easily resolved.This is not a guide to wanting more.It is an invitation to want honestly-and to live with that honesty intact.
