A good perspective piece thinking on the life of someone brilliant but with cerebral palsy. I stand it in contrast to the story told by Wonder; I've only seen the film of Wonder, and the disability of that one was entirely aesthetic, but the masterpiece of the storytelling was the way the narrative considers the lives and reactions of those AROUND the handicapped. This story is entirely from the perspective of Melody, so is probably more complimentary than any of those around her. This was a real loss; still, it gives a chance to splash perspective upon those who have been around the profoundly disabled and to consider the minds that may be betrayed by their bodies.
