- The whistler / by Medina, Nick,author.;
"For fear of summoning evil spirits, Native superstition says you should never, ever whistle at night. Henry Hotard was on the verge of fame, gaining a following and traction with his eerie ghost-hunting videos. Then his dreams came to a screeching halt. Now, he's learning to navigate a new life in a wheelchair, back on the reservation where he grew up, relying on his grandparents' care while he recovers. And he's being haunted. His girlfriend, Jade, insists he just needs time to adjust to his new reality as a quadriplegic, that it's his traumatized mind playing tricks on him, but Henry knows better. As the specter haunting him creeps closer each night, Henry battles to find a way to endure, to rid himself of the horror stalking him.

- Shattered : a memoir / by Kureishi, Hanif,author.;
"On Boxing Day 2022, in Rome, Hanif Kureishi had a fall. When he came to, in a pool of blood, he was horrified to realise he had lost the use of his limbs. He could no longer walk, write or wash himself. He could do nothing without the help of others, and required constant care in a hospital. So began an odyssey of a year through the medical systems of Rome and Italy, with the hope of somehow being able to return home, to his house in London. While confined to a series of hospital wards, he felt compelled to write, but being unable to type or to hold a pen, he began to dictate to family members the words which formed in his head. The result was an extraordinary series of dispatches from his hospital bed -- a diary of a life in pieces, recorded with rare honesty, clarity and courage. This book takes these hospital dispatches -- edited, expanded and meticulously interwoven with new writing -- and charts both a shattering and a reassembling: a new life born of pain and loss, but animated by new feelings -- of gratitude, humility and love"--- Subjects: Biographies.; Autobiographies.; Personal narratives.; Kureishi, Hanif.; Authors with disabilities; Authors, English; Bisexual men; Falls (Accidents); Hospital patients; Life change events; Novelists, English; People with quadriplegia; Screenwriters; Spinal cord; Dramatists, English;
