Train Go Sorry by Leah Hager Cohen
In American Sign Language, train go sorry means missing the boat. Leah Hager Cohen uses the phrase as shorthand for the myriad missed connections between the deaf and the hearing. Yet in this stunning work of journalism and memoir she also forges new connections. As she ushers readers into New York's Lexington School for the Deaf, Cohen (whose grandfather was deaf and whose father was the school's superintendent) conveys the intimate truths of this silent but articulate world.Leah Hager Cohen is the author of five novels, including The Sorrow of Others, which was longlisted for the Orange Prize, was declared a New York Times Notable Book, and was chosen one of the greatest books of the year by the San Francisco Chronicle, Kirkus Reviews, and The Globe and Mail, as well as the upcoming No Book But the World. She has also written four other nonfiction books, including Train Go Sorry. She contributes to The New York Times Book Review on a regular basis.
