What is Stump the Librarian : a Writer's Book of Legs about?

This Book is a diverse collection of creative writing that explores Alan Samrys life as a congenital below-knee amputee and a public librarian. Alans cross-genre writing in creative nonfiction, poetry, essays, satire, scholarship, and experimental writing weaves fascinating mythical, historical, and literary figures into his own absorbing story of being a born amputee. In the book, with chapters organized as though the reader were exploring a public library, Alan writes about his experiences in an open, insightful, and humorous way. In his search for other leg amputees, Alan finds a new way of seeing himself, and the world around him. "In a very delightful and provocative manner, Alan relates his personal memoirs and shares historical and imagined characters who are like-amputees. Alans writing style is fascinatingly varied, and insightful into his own self-discovery. He shares intimate details that enable readers to appreciate his story and perspective. This book is a celebration of Alan his person, determination, and his insatiable desire for truth." Tamara Dean, Director, Fairhope Public Library
