Who Wants Normal by the award-winning journalist and author Frances Ryan is a game-changing take on disability and feminism.Part memoir, part manifesto, it explores six facets of life: education, careers, health, body image, relationships and representation, as well as how to survive life's bumps in the road. It draws on Frances's own experience as well as her interviews with over fifty of Britain's best-known women and non-binary people with mental and physical health conditions, including Jameela Jamil, Sophie Morgan, Ruth Madeley, Nikki Fox, Rosie Jones, Fearne Cotton, Emma Barnett, Ellie Goldstein and Katie Piper.Who Wants Normal lifts the lid on and redefines what it means to be a disabled woman in Britain today.
