Summary:
I’m Here: Stories that We Don’t Want to Hear is a book that depicts portraits of people who don’t usually make it into newspapers or books, and if they do, they are written about with a great deal of prejudice and stereotyping. The book contains nine stories, each with a different focus: institutionalisation, close relatives with dementia, transgender people, children of alcoholics, people with dissabilities, etc. (source: publisher)

Comment:
The aim of this book is to not only show readers how, for one reason or another, each and every one of us can quickly find ourselves on the periphery and outside the attention of society, but telling their individual stories also means pursuing the processes through which society systematically, ruthlessly and inhumanely pushes them aside.
